Hello DCAT Takers!
The results of the De La Salle College Admission Test DCAT have just been released today and obviously, many applicants are eager to find out their results. Unfortunately, the website cannot handle the traffic, making the loading of the results a very long wait.
This workaround will still need some patience, but it will allow you to skip some steps that will need much, much more waiting. This will DIRECTLY lead you to the status letter.

Getting Your Result
In trying to get your result, you will be linked to the My.LaSalle website. The page will then ask you for your reference number, first name and surname (can be found in the green paper given to you after taking the DCAT). The page looks like this:
Then when you press "Search", you will only be sent back to the page, only that a "Print" button will be visible on top of the form. Clicking that "Print" will lead to your status letter.
In effect, the status letter will have been the third page you accessed, but just loading a page will take a really long time.
The Workaround
This will save you from having to load two pages.
**I USED MOZILLA FIREFOX IN THIS**
1. Copy the following and paste it in the address bar:
http://enroll.dlsu.edu.ph/dlsu/freshmen?w_case_no=[refnum]&w_last_name=[surname]&w_first_name=[firstname]&w_button=Print2. Replace the brackets with the following:
[refnum] - Your reference number
[surname] - Your surname. Replace spaces with %20
[firstname] - Your first name. Replace spaces with %20
DO NOT put the details in the bracket. Replace the whole thing itself!
So for example, if my first name is Juan, my surname is De La Cruz, and my reference number is 24812, the link should look like this:
http://enroll.dlsu.edu.ph/dlsu/freshmen?w_case_no=24812&w_last_name=De%20La%20Cruz&w_first_name=Juan&w_button=Print
3. Press enter. If it doesn't load on first try, just keep on refreshing. The page should load if done correctly.
God Bless, and hope for the best!
Note: I can't guarantee 100% that this will work. However, I've tried this method with other applicants (who have asked my help), and they were able to load their status letters. If it cannot really work, I suggest that you go through the normal procedure.
