What is Pre Unique?
The annual inter-school and inter-collegiate cultural and intellectual fest of St Aloysius PU College — a vibrant platform for students to showcase talent across artistic, literary, and intellectual pursuits. For over two decades, Pre Unique has celebrated youthful creativity, collaboration, and excellence across Mangaluru and beyond.
Theme: LUMIORA
A Guiding Light
This year's theme, LUMIORA, carries the slogan “A Guiding Light” — encouraging participants to reach for their stars, dream beyond limitations, and perform with authenticity.

Principal's Message
Pre Unique 2026 · 30th & 31st October 2026
Dear Friends,
Every generation carries within it a spark — a quiet, persistent light that, when nurtured, has the power to illuminate not just one life, but an entire community. It is this belief that lies at the heart of everything we do at St Aloysius Pre-University College.
This year, as we gather once again for PRE-UNIQUE, we do so under the inspiring theme — Lumiora. A word that evokes light, guidance, and the promise of new beginnings. How fitting it is, then, that young minds from across Karnataka come together under this very idea — to shine, to grow, and to guide one another forward.
PRE-UNIQUE has always been more than a competition. It is a stage where voices dare to speak, hands dare to create, and hearts dare to dream. Each edition marks a new chapter, and this year is no different. We step into it with fresh energy, renewed purpose, and an eagerness to witness the brilliance that our students carry within them.
To every participant, every institution, and every young soul joining us on 30th and 31st October 2026 — you are not merely competing. You are becoming part of a story of growth, of light finding its way through, of beginnings that matter.
Welcome to PRE-UNIQUE 2026. Welcome to Lumiora.
Warm regards,
Fr Clifford Sequeira, SJ
Principal
St Aloysius Pre-University College
