The Department said it hopes to exceed the 26.2 million learners who enlisted last year by extending the enrollment period.

In our previous meeting with the Executive Committee, we have decided that we will release a memorandum on the acceptance of enrollees until September 30, 2021. We expect that we will exceed our enrollment in school year 2020-2021 given that we already have 24.6 million enrolled students as of today,

Escobedo said.

As of Monday, there were over 24 million students who have enrolled. About 23.2 million were enrolled in public schools, 1.4 million in private schools, and 41,000 in state and local universities and colleges offering basic education.
