Jose Maria College Foundation, Inc. (JMCFI), or simply Jose Maria College (JMC), is a tertiary educational institution in Davao City, Philippines.[1]
Jose Maria College was founded by pastor Apollo Quiboloy of the Kingdom of Jesus Christ church, naming the institution after his parents, José Quiboloy and María Carreon.[2] [3] The campus which broke ground in 2000 and opened two years later as the "Jose Maria Academy"[4] is situated near the Francisco Bangoy International Airport.[5] It adopted its current name in 2003.[4]
While its founder is affiliated with the Kingdom of Jesus Christ, JMC is non-sectarian in administration and is open to admission to any students regardless of religious background. It offers both basic (kindergarten to senior high school) to tertiary education.[6]
At the 2024 Senate hearings, the JMC were alleged to be promising KJC members scholarship in exchange for being full-time workers for KJC. The administration was also accused of withholding transcript of records from its ex-KJC students who left church.[7]
The Jose Maria College's varsity team are known as the JMC Kings. The JMC maintains a men's basketball team.[8] [9] [10] They also have a women's volleyball team named the Lady Royals which has played in the 2023 National Invitationals of the Shakey's Super League.[11]
