[edit] History
Manticao, Misamis Oriental was Mountain View College's first campus from 1949-1952. In 1953, MVC moved to its present location and opened its doors to students in the South. The College held its first graduation exercises in 1957, four years after its official opening.
Located on a 2,500-foot (760 m) plateau in the province of Bukidnon, the college owns 10.24 km², which includes farmlands, forest, and ranch lands ideal for industry work. The land has an ample supply of water that allows MVC to have its own hydroelectric plants, providing the campus populace with enough electricity along with an abundant water supply for the homes and other college facilities.
