List of 4 frequently asked questions.

• Why º£½ÇÔÚÏß?

  • As the pioneer of French immersion in Canada, º£½ÇÔÚÏß provides an exceptional bilingual education that is academically rigorous and balanced. Our students graduate fully bilingual in French and English, and obtain the French Brevet and internationally recognized IB Diploma. Learn more about the IB program and about the French program.
  • Consistent with º£½ÇÔÚÏß’ yearly results, 100% of our graduates of 2024 were distinguished as Ontario Scholars (averages of 80%+) and 81% were eligible to receive the Bilingual or Advanced Bilingual Diploma.
  • Not surprisingly, 100% of our 2024 graduates received university offers of choice.
  • Renowned for our strength in academics and languages, º£½ÇÔÚÏß also offers a wealth of co-curricular activities, including sports, arts and opportunities to engage in social/community action. Our students become friends for life, and in our co-educational environment, boys and girls learn teamwork, teambuilding and cooperative behaviour together.
  • º£½ÇÔÚÏß prepares its students to enter the university and career of their choice, while becoming engaged citizens of the world.

• Who should apply?

  • Students who will be entering Grade 7 or above in September 2026 and who don’t currently attend º£½ÇÔÚÏß.
  • Entrance scholars will be selected based on academic merit, involvement in their school and/or community, as well as financial need.
  • Academic eligibility: candidates should be able to demonstrate a minimum A average in the past two academic years.
  • Financial eligibility: We define financial need as a family’s inability to pay for even a portion of º£½ÇÔÚÏß’ tuition fees. The Entrance Scholarships are meant to provide an enriched learning opportunity to an exceptional student who would not otherwise have the resources to attend º£½ÇÔÚÏß.
  • As financial need depends on the circumstances and composition of each family, no firm thresholds are set. However, families (including single parents and recent arrivals to Canada) are strongly encouraged to apply if their annual income is less than $80,000.
  • Students currently in immersion or French schools are strongly urged to apply, as well as those in English-language schools (applying to Grade 7). Grade 7 entrance scholars who are not fluent in French will enter our special Intro French program for the first year, which follows the regular curriculum but with a special focus on language acquisition. 
  • Scholarships are intended for domestic applicants only, defined as students living in Canada at the time of application. It is the responsibility of the family to obtain any visa/permits necessary to live and study in Canada.

• FAQ / Terms and Conditions

  How many scholarships are available? What are the chances of my child being selected?
  º£½ÇÔÚÏß plans to award one new scholarship for the 2026-2027 academic year. The eligibility criteria for our Entrance Scholarships are quite narrow.
  
  Therefore, if your child has a strong academic/community involvement record and demonstrated financial need, we strongly encourage you to apply.
  
  What does financial need mean? I make a decent income, but could never afford to send my child to private school.
  The Entrance Scholarships are meant to provide an enriched learning opportunity to an exceptional student who would not otherwise have the resources to reach their full potential.
  
  As financial need depends on the circumstances and composition of each family, no firm thresholds are set. However, families (including single parents and recent arrivals to Canada) are strongly encouraged to apply if their annual income is less than $80,000.
