Abstract	This paper measures the technical efficiency of 16 selected colleges and universities in Metro Manila, Philippines, using academic data for the SY 2001-2005. Using the data envelopment analysis (DEA), on average, schools posted 0.807 index score and need additional 19.3% efficiency growth to be efficient. Overall, there are top four efficient schools, with an average technical efficiency score between 99-100%, representing 25% of the sample. The slacks and efficient targets results have school's policy decision-making implications: Through DEA, schools have a reference set of actual values and accurate information for performance improvement on their resource allocation usage and output targets. The benchmarking characteristics of DEA may help school's administrators aspire for better performance by learning from other efficient schools. (As Provided).
