St Paul University Manila



As we are traveling to Pedro Gil LRT Station, we came across St Paul University which was located on the left hand side of the road.

St. Paul University (SPU Manila) is a private, women's college in Manila, Philippines. The college was established in 1911. St. Paul Manila, as we are commonly called, has evolved and grown from very humble beginnings in 1912 and, over the years, we’ve had the privilege of teaching thousands of young people such as you. Many of them have gone on to successful lives and careers and their personal and professional successes constantly motivate everyone in this school. While we have grown and changed over the years, certain basic principles and values have been consistent and form the foundation for the policies and procedures detailed in this handbook. Our roots go back more than 300 years ago in a small village called Levesville-la-Chenard in France. It was there that the education ministry of the Congregation of the Sisters of St. Paul of Chartres started. Since then, the ministry has found its way to 6 continents, and 32 countries. In the Philippines, this university is only one of about 36 educational institutions run and administered by the congregation. Together with Paulinians all over the world, we live a common motto: Caritas Christi urget nos (The charity of Christ urges us). St. Paul University Manila has a long and proud tradition of excellence in Catholic education. We have remained true to our mission: the total formation of persons in the service of family, Church, and society while adhering to the highest standards of professionalism and academic excellence.
