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 North Point School says about their admissions requirements:
APPLICATION PROCESS
If you would like to attend North Point, the application process is as follows:
Step 1: PERSONAL INTERVIEW
At this point, we presume you have attended one of our Open Houses or a Personal School Tour. We then conduct an interview with both the prospective student and parent(s) to confirm this is the correct fit for everyone involved. If you have not yet attended this interview, please do so BEFORE submitting this Application for Admission. Prospective students should attend a school Shadow Day.
Step 2: APPLICATION
Application for Admission packages submitted MUST include the completed documents and attachments to ensure a successful student enrolment at North Point School for Boys. A checklist is provided for your reference only and does not need to be submitted as part of the submitted package.
Step 3: FINAL ASSESSMENT AND ACCEPTANCE
Once we have received your application, we review the documentation, the personal interview and shadow day (if applicable). Parents are notified by phone and in writing of acceptance. Upon acceptance, parents are invited to complete the student registration and remit a deposit and the remaining tuition fees are due in accordance with the fee schedule.
