The lockdown, which started in mid-March, led to UP's Office of Admissions "operating with only a tiny fraction of its workforce to complete the necessary validation procedures and the final computations of results for over 100,000 UPCAT (University of the Philippines College Admission Test) examinees," the university said Tuesday in a statement.
