8.   "AUP was evaluated in 8 areas which are... laboratory facilities... and physical facilities....  With the result of the evaluation, we now see clearly the things that should be done.

In retrospect,

9. "Groundbreaking ceremonies for the college of medicine building had been performed by past administrations... because past administrators were informed that the main requirement for a Doctor of Medicine program were for the university to have a building for the college and the hospital within its premises."

10.  "They were even told by some other medical education experts that AUP does not need to have a completed building to start a medicine program, much more have the school's very own hospital."

11.   "... in June of the following year 2012, AUP filed a revised COM application... The plan was for existing structures of AUP to be used."

12.  Meanwhile, the AUP administration approved that the College of Medicine be used temporarily by other disciplines as offices and classrooms this school year 2014.
