APA Residence

As a student at the APA, you will live in our Slemon Park residence for the duration of your program, except when you are away for on-the-job training.*

Living in residence will give you experience interacting with other cadets in a way that wouldn’t be possible if you only interacted with one another in an instructional setting. You will develop your teamwork, problem-solving, time management and communication skills, and develop deeper gender and cross-cultural sensitivity, all of which are essential for a successful career in the public safety community.

Residence Features

Each single-occupancy room includes a bathroom, fridge, television, air conditioning, and heating. Common areas include a sitting room, laundry and kitchen (non-cooking) facilities.

Food and Dining

Students are provided 14 meals a week: breakfast, lunch and dinner Monday through Thursday, breakfast and lunch on Friday. Weekend meal options are available.

Application and Fees 

With the exception of our Correctional Officer applicants, you DO NOT need to apply to live in residence at the APA. Once you're accepted to a program, you will automatically be assigned a residence room. The residence and meal costs are included in your tuition. 

Rooms may be open for Correctional Officer applicants, depending on availability – please enquire through the registrar.

*Students in the Province of P.E.I.'s Accelerated Correctional Officer program are not required to live in the residence.
