La Salle College Antipolo, or La Salle Antipolo, is a Lasallian educational institution located in Antipolo City, Rizal, in the Philippines. It was founded as La Salle School by Br. Rolando Dizon FSC, a past President of De La Salle University-Manila, in 1986.
Construction of the school began on March 16, 1985. During this time, Kindergarten to Fourth Grade classes were temporarily held at La Salle Green Hills as construction was delayed because of the costs and logistics that were involved in building a school on a mountain.
Classes were transferred to the Antipolo campus on January 13, 1986 and were housed in two buildings. A third building was completed in the summer of 1987, with a fourth one completed in 1989. The school's St. Benilde Multi-purpose Hall was finished in 1991, while the high school and laboratory-library buildings were completed in 1994.
The Tertiary Education Unit was launched on year 1998, BS in Education and BS in Accountancy were the pioneer courses that time.
In 2006, La Salle College became part of De La Salle Philippines, Inc.
In 2014, De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde acquired a building in the city proper for the Tertiary Education Unit of La Salle College Antipolo to use in this coming semester.
The school will later be called De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde - Antipolo Campus by 2018
The school is now called La Salle College, Antipolo City, since Antipolo is separated from La Salle College as not to relate the school only to the City of Antipolo but also to everyone. At present it caters to students from different parts of Rizal and Metro Manila.
The TEU population grew rapidly. However, some courses were dissolved, and now the college offers six undergraduate courses namely:
With these objectives in mind, the program in production consists of theoretical and practical courses. The regular LIA major is trained to integrate the following areas of production: photography, film and video, print and broadcast.
