The study analyzes and compares the selected academic programs of Colegio de San Juan de Letran-Calamba from school years 1996-1999 based on the indicators of internal efficiency (retention rate, success rate, cost per student per program, coefficient of efficiency, scholastic achievement and board examination performance) and external productivity (graduates' job placement which include waiting time before employment and nature of employment graduates' job productivity, such as salary, job performance as rated by the immediate supervisor/head awards and career mobility and social benefits which include graduates' work achievement, community/social involvement, seminars attended and political involvement. Furthermore, the study investigates the significant difference in the performance of selected academic programs of Colegio de San Juan de Letran-Calamba in terms of internal efficiency and external productivity indicators. The study employed the descriptive-evaluative and comparative method of research. Apparent cohort method was also used. Questionnaires were sent to the graduates of selected academic programs (BS Mechanical Engineering, BS Industrial Engineering, BS Accountancy and BSC Marketing) and to their respective immediatee supervisor/head. Records of the CPA and Mechanical Engineering board examinations and the respondent's grades were obtained from the Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) and from the Registrar's Office of Colegio de San Juan de Letran-Calamba, respectively. Some statistical tools used were frequency distribution, percentage, range, trend, mean and analysis of variance (ANOVA). In the light of the findings, the following conclusions were drawn:

1. Internal Efficiency Indictors. Based on the indicators of internal efficiency, The BS Accountancy program is considered to be the most internally efficient among the four programs included in the study, followed by the BSC Marketing and BSME program which are ranked second and third, respectively. The BSIE program is considered to be the least efficient. However, the respondent-graduates of the BSME program performed better than the respondent-graduates of the BS Accountancy program in the board examination.

2. External Productivity Indicators. In general, the respondent-graduates of the BSIE program are considered to be the most externally productive in terms of the indicators.

3. Social Benefits. The respondent-graduates of the BSME program emerged to be the most externally productive in social benefits.
