We welcome your interest in seeking admission for your children at Fraser Valley School. Admission to Fraser Valley School is selective and highly competitive and is based on a complete review of each student as a whole person.  If you have any additional questions, please contact our admissions office at (604) 427-2282 ext-224

Admissions Procedures:

The process includes a review of all application documentation, a parent interview, and a completed student entrance assessment; we try to ensure that the student is suited for the level and style of education we offer.

Interviews for grades 1 to 12 will be scheduled when we have sufficient space in the application grade and after the student assessment has been completed. Submitting an application does not guarantee an interview session.

Step 3:

Entrance Assessment

All applicants are required to attend an admissions assessment at Fraser Valley School.

  • 2024 Kindergarten applications — 1 hour on (mid-feb 2024), a mock kindergarten class
  • 2024 Grades 1-12 — (early-Feb 2024), written exams

Any applications received AFTER the application deadline will only be assessed if we have space in the respective grade. Applications on the waitlist are automatically forwarded into the next incoming school year.

Step 4:

Waitlist

All applicants will be placed on our waitlist for the appropriate grade. Should a classroom space become available we will look at our waitlisted candidates. Applications stay on-file for up to three years.

All grades are currently waitlisted, to join the waitlist please submit your application.

Step 5:

Offer of Admission

An Offer of Admission will be emailed when a space becomes available. Our current students have enrollment priority over new applicants. In March we will begin drafting new Offers of Admission based on how many spaces become available.

 

Step 6:

Decisions

Parents of new students have seven (7) days from receipt of the acceptance letter to notify the admissions office of their intent to enrol their child and to pay the $1000.00 tuition deposit. This will be applied to your tuition fee for the year but is not refundable if you decide to cancel your enrolment for any reason at FVS.  Your placement fee guarantees a reserved spot for your child. We ask that parents read all tuition and fee materials very carefully.
