Private schools in Canada have admissions policies, and they require application materials. These may include letters of application, application fees, essays, and tests (such as the SSAT). Many schools also require interviews with prospective students. Schools also use different criteria for evaluating student applications, have different acceptance rates, and target different kinds of students. To improve your child’s chances of acceptance, find out everything you can about a school’s admissions policies and how they assess applicants.

What Notre Dame College says about their admissions requirements:
At Athol Murray College of Notre Dame, the academic program commences at the beginning of September and ends in June each year. All applicants are encouraged to apply as early as possible – preferably six months to one year in advance of planned enrolment.
Applications for admission will be accepted until our programs are full, at which point a waiting pool is established. International student applicants must apply early enough to allow time for their Canadian Study Permits to be processed. This process can take several weeks to complete. If you require assistance with the application process, please contact our Enrolment Office at 306-732-1249.
Applicants must submit all documentation in the English language.
Applicants will be considered for admission on a rolling basis. The College establishes a waiting pool once each grade is full.
Documents needed include: photo of applicant, principal recommendation from current school and school report card. Additional documentation may be required upon completion of on-line application found here: https://notredame.myschoolapp.com/app#login/apply

What type of student Notre Dame College is looking for:
The Notre Dame Man & Woman
The world today is looking for men and women,
Who are not for sale
Who are honest, sound from centre to circumference, true to the heart's core
With consciences as steady as the needle to the pole
Who will stand for the right if the heavens totter and the earth reels
Who can tell the truth and look the world right in the eye
Who neither brag nor run
Who neither flag or flinch
Who can have courage without shouting it
In whom the courage of everlasting life runs still, deep and strong
Who know their message and tell it
Who know their place and fill it
Who know their business and attend to it
Who will not lie, shirk or dodge
Who are not too lazy to work, nor too proud to be poor
Who are willing to eat what they have earned and wear what they have paid for
Who are not ashamed to say "No" with emphasis
God is looking for them. He wants those who can unite together around a common faith - who can join hands in a common task - and who have come to the kingdom for such a time as this. God give us such as them.
Not only will they be better prepared to fulfil their duties as a citizen, they should make a better friend, a better husband, a better father, a better wife, because free people do. They will, in short, be better prepared to live, and when their hour comes, they will know better how to die because free people do.
– Athol Murray
