Unless things have changed, you just pay for materials. If I remember correctly, we did a lot of resto work on a 5.0 L mustang, and full paint, for around $600.

That's how it was when I went to VCC, ages ago.
No other reason to let your car be fixed by students, otherwise.

working room though is at a premium, especially when talking about painting

I'd rather let students paint it with professional instruction, then myself with YouTube. Hah

Plastic drop sheets to make a "booth" around the car. Palm sander to "rough up the surface". Cheap fan from London Drugs to vent the booth out and a cheap paint gun from Lordco and give it a go yourself.
I plan on picking up some paint guns and such later on and giving this a go myself on smaller items but always wanted to give painting a try since I already detail.

I am the automotive service side and when people do that we just tell em no we wont since we'd rather work on our own cars.
the only time I actually saw a customer car get fixed was one of the instructors who just got paint chip cover ups done in 2 days...

I just dropped by BCIT to see if they would take on the project, and they said that due to the rear quarter panel rust, they wont have enough time to do it.
If anyone is thinking about getting it done, make sure there isn't any rust!
They also said they're pretty booked up til the end of this year, but if you're interested you can inquire about early next year.
Hope this helps for others considering this route
