Abstract This study determined the level of awareness, acceptability and relevance of the Vision, Mission, Goals, and Objectives (VMGO) among stakeholders of the Bachelor of Public Administration (BPA) program at Davao del Norte State College (DNSC) and examined differences in awareness, acceptability and relevance when analyzed by students’ year level. Utilizing a descriptive-comparative quantitative design, the study surveyed 500 respondents—including enrolled students, alumni, and faculty—through a validated structured questionnaire. Descriptive results revealed a very high level of VMGO awareness, acceptability and relevance across all stakeholder groups, with the highest scores in the relevance and acceptability of institutional goals. However, the indicator on VMGO dissemination consistently received the lowest ratings. Inferential analysis using ANOVA showed no significant difference in overall VMGO awareness, acceptability and relevance by year level (p = .32), except for awareness of dissemination strategies, which showed significant variation (p = .008). The findings affirm DNSC’s institutional alignment efforts and support Institutional and Stakeholder Theories, while also highlighting the need for targeted dissemination strategies for lower-year students. The study contributes to educational governance by providing empirical insights on VMGO internalization and recommending enhanced communication strategies to strengthen stakeholder alignment in Philippine higher education.
