Study carrels and lockers

Lockers

St. Paul's College Students' Association (SPCSA) offers its members a locker at no extra cost! Locker sign up takes place in the cafeteria at a table on Thursday, September 5, 2024, from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.

Non-members can also get a locker at the college for $25, which is lower than most   locker fees on campus.

For inquiries about lockers, please contact the SPCSA.

Study carrels

St. Paul's College (SPC) provides its students with private study carrels located in a locked room. The carrel room is located on the first floor of SPC. Each student who is awarded a carrel is given a key code to the carrel room and is charged a $60 session fee for the Fall and Winter Terms.

We are currently renting out study carrels for the Fall and Winter Terms.

Allocation of carrels will take place on Tuesday, September 10, and Wednesday September 11, 2024, at 8:00 a.m. in the SPC General Office, room 209. Carrels are awarded on a first-come, first-serve basis. Any applications received after that date will be added to a waiting list.

Payment and access to carrels will begin in September. Personal ID and proof of membership must be presented at the time of rental.

Fee for September to April is $60.
Fee for May to August (2025) is $30.
