who we are

A Catholic university rooted in Paulinian identity

St. Paul University Quezon City (SPUQC) is a not-for-profit Catholic university in the Philippines. It is one of thirty-six (36) schools operating under the Sisters of St. Paul of Chartres (SPC) management in the Philippines.

Situated on a gentle slope of what was initially known as New Manila, the campus now occupies an entire block bordered by busy Aurora Boulevard, Gilmore Avenue, Third Street, and Doña Magdalena Hemady Street in Quezon City.

It is recognized by the Commission on Higher Education (CHEd), the Philippine Accrediting Association of Schools, Colleges, and Universities (PAASCU), the Philippine Association of Colleges and Universities Commission on Accreditation (PACUCOA), the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), and United Nations Academic Impact (UNAI) accredited university.

While tremendous changes have occurred, one important factor has remained constant: the SPUQC Paulinian, whether a religious, faculty member, non-teaching staff member, or student, has remained warm, simple, and active.
