Leyte Normal University (LNU) is a public state university on Paterno Street in Tacloban City, Leyte. It began in 1921 as the Provincial Normal School, an extension of Leyte High School, and grew into a two-year collegiate teacher-training institution by 1938 and a four-year degree-granting college in 1952. Presidential Decree No. 944 converted it into Leyte State College in 1976, and Republic Act No. 7910, signed on February 23, 1995, converted it into Leyte Normal University. CHED has twice proclaimed LNU a Center of Excellence for Teacher Education in Region VIII, first from 1996 to 2001 and again from 2008 to 2011. Beyond teacher education, LNU now offers programs in arts and sciences, management, entrepreneurship, and graduate studies. As a state university, LNU falls under Republic Act No. 10931, the Universal Access to Quality Tertiary Education Act, which covers tuition and most other school fees for qualified Filipino undergraduate students; students still cover personal costs such as board, lodging, and supplies.

The Leyte Normal University is a public university in the Philippines. It is mandated to provide higher professional and special instructions for special purposes and to promote research and extension services, advanced studies and progressive leadership in education and other related fields. Its main campus is in Tacloban City. The history of Leyte Normal University dates back to the pre-war years. It came into being in 1921 as the Provincial Normal School, a mere adjunct of the Leyte High School. It eventually outgrew its base becoming a two-year collegiate training institution in 1938. It became a degree-granting four-year college complete with a training department in 1952. It was then known as Leyte Normal School. On June 14, 1976, it was converted into the Leyte State College by virtue of Presidential Decree No. 944, signed by then Pres. Ferdinand Marcos. In 1993, the late Cong. Cirilo Roy Montejo filed House Bill No. 22 in the House of Representatives proposing the conversion of the college into a university. This bill was sponsored by former Sen. Letecia Ramos-Shahani in the Senate. On February 23, 1995, the college was converted into the Leyte Normal University though R.A. 7910. Sometime in April 1996, the university was proclaimed by the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) as the Center of Excellence for Teacher Education in Region VIII from 1996 to 2001. Then in August 2008, CHED again awarded LNU as Center of Excellence for Teacher Education from 2008 - 2011.
I currently study here. This school is one the best here in Leyte or Region 8. Competitive and highly recommended school to attend. A lot of people here in Leyte knew about this school, and their professors are elites in their respective field.
Strict but nice
