establishment, with the number of infrastructures,
projects/programs and enrollment have been increasing

1807, it was converted into an agricultural school known
as the Baybay National Agricultural and Vocational School.

portion of the province, the school was then elevated to
Baybay National College of Agriculture and Technology in
1971 by virtue of Republic Act 6327.
