Initially named Colegio de NuestraSeora de Santissimo Rosario, in
honor of the patroness of the
Dominican Province of the Holy
Rosary, the institution served as a
preparatory school for priesthood.
Eventually, the school was renamed
afterSt. Thomas Aquinas, the greatest
theologian of the Dominican Order.
UST used to be in Intramuros Manila, but due to
the growing number of enrollees, a new campus
was built in Sampaloc in 1927. During the Second
World War, UST Intramuros was totally destroyed.
The Arch of the Centuries located at the Espaa
gate is a reconstruction of the doorway of UST
Intramuros. Its back portion was constructed
out of the remnants of the original doorway.

USTs academic life was interrupted
twice: First by the Philippine
revolution against Spain (1898-1899)
And then again during the Second
World War(1942-1945) when UST was
used by the Japanese as a
concentration camp.
Manuel Colayco, after whom the UST Colayco Park was
named, was mortally wounded at the gates of UST
during the Liberation of Manila. This battle at the gates
of UST was instrumental to the release of American
prisoners of war.
