Not on the Department of Education’s list: it is here as OpenStreetMap names and maps it. Whether it is public or private is taken from OpenStreetMap or from its name. Something wrong?

Where OpenStreetMap has a school of this name in this town.
Notre Dame University (NDU) was founded in 1948 by the Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate as Notre Dame College. It was the first college in Cotabato City and in the old province of Cotabato. It was set up mainly to train teachers, and it offered courses in liberal arts, commerce and elementary education. Fr. Robert Sullivan, OMI was its first dean. (The university's own pages give his middle initial as both F. and E.)
The graduate school opened in school year 1962-1963. Notre Dame College became a university on March 11, 1969, and was formally inaugurated on September 9, 1969, with Fr. Joseph Milford, OMI as its first president. Fr. Orlando Quevedo, OMI became the first Filipino president in 1971.
In 1976 an earthquake struck Cotabato City, and the university had to rebuild. In 1980 three of its colleges received Level I accreditation from PAASCU. It opened the NDU Peace Center in December 1988 and later made peace education a core part of its programs, including master's and doctoral degrees in peace and development.
As the crow flies, among the schools pinned where they stand.
