It was founded on 19 October 1904, as the Manila Business School and as part of Manila's public school system. It was eventually promoted to a chartered state university in 1978, by virtue of Presidential Decree 1341. PUP has more than 20 Campuses across Central Luzon, Southern Luzon and Metro Manila. With over 80,000 enrolled students, PUP claims to be the largest state university in the Philippines by student population.

The Universal Access to Quality Tertiary Education Act of 2017 mandates free tuition and fees for all students of state universities and colleges.

PUP has a reputation for student activism against tuition fee hikes.
