The seniors' division of the UAAP Season 74 volleyball tournaments opened November 26, 2011. Tournaments are hosted by Ateneo de Manila University. Tournament games are held at the Filoil Flying V Arena in San Juan City.[1][2]

Usually held in the first semester, the UAAP Board decided to move the juniors' division tournaments on the second semester of the 2011–12 school year. In boys' tournament, the NU Bullpups and UST Tiger Cubs, which are tied at second place, played for the #2 seed with the latter winning the playoff. UE Junior Spikers successfully defended their title after beating UST in the finals. UE was awarded their tenth and eighth consecutive UAAP boys' volleyball championship. On the other hand, the La Salle Junior Lady Archers won all of their elimination round games in girls' division to clinch the championship outright.

In men's tournament, the FEU Tamaraws and the defending champions UST Tiger Spikers emerged on top of the standings and faced La Salle Green Spikers and Adamson Falcons in semifinals respectively. UST beat Adamson in four sets in semifinals to formalize their entry to the Finals.[3] La Salle forced a rubber match[4] but FEU won in a thrilling four-set battle on the second game to face third consecutive Finals rematch with UST.[5]

In women's tournament, the La Salle Lady Spikers had the distinction of sweeping the double round eliminations 14–0, capped by a win against Ateneo Lady Spikers (3–2) on their last elimination round game.[6] The UST Tigresses snagged the solo third spot into the Final Four after beating Adamson Lady Falcons in straight sets on their last game of eliminations.[7] With La Salle sweeping the elimination round, the playoff tournament went through the stepladder format.[8] Being tied at fourth place, FEU Lady Tamaraws blanked Adamson on a play for the #4 seed, the last berth to the first round of the playoffs.[9] UST defeated FEU in a playoff,[3] but Ateneo, enjoying twice-to-beat advantage, marched to their first UAAP Finals appearance with a win over the Tigresses.[10]
