    Step 1: PERSONAL INTERVIEW

    At this point, we presume you have attended one of our Open Houses or a Personal School Tour.

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.

  • Why it matters
