This article aims to report on the postsecondary education status of selected deaf students in the Philippines. An author-made Questionnaire was administered to a total of 65 students (34 male and 31 female) who came from a college for the deaf and regular schools with special programs for the hearing impaired. Results revealed that pursuit for postsecondary education has been the concern of single students who most of the cases were born in Metro Manila and belong to low income group. They showed average achievement in English and Mathematics while low performance in Science was noted. As a result of inclination for a more "hands on learning," vocational/technical related programs summarizes the courses of the students. Lecture was the most preferred learning strategies and the importance of teacher interpreter and sign language interpreter was strongly recognized. Findings indicate the need for strengthening the vocational curriculum in the secondary level to prepare the students for their postsecondary options in this area. Teaching strategies should also be enriched to increase the students' level of motivation.
