In 1987, ownership and management were transferred to Frère (St.) Bénilde Romançon Educational Foundation Inc., a sister corporation of De La Salle University-Manila.

In 1997 the institution was renamed again as De La Salle University – Dasmariñas to avoid confusion with the Emilio Aguinaldo College Cavite campus.
