It has two categories: the Latin division and the Standard division. The competition is only a special event sport; thus, it has no bearing on the overall standing.[3]
In its first competition, seven out of all eight UAAP member-schools joined. University of the Philippines Ballroom Formation Team won both categories.
Latin Mixed was added for its third edition in UAAP Season 85 where UP claimed the first-ever title.[4]
This consisted of cha-cha-cha, rumba, and jive.
