Application Forms
If you’re new to BVCS, please be sure to check out our admissions process! We’d love to meet you and show you around before receiving your application form.
Is there an application deadline?
Our admissions deadline for September admission is May 1 each year. Applications received after this date are considered “late applications”. Depending on circumstances, late applications can leave us with insufficient time to complete the admissions process prior to the September “start of school” date. Families should be prepared for delayed start of school and are advised to have alternative schooling arrangements in case of delay or denial for any reason.
If you apply in the summer (July or August) please be aware that the staff and committee responsible for admissions are away for the summer. Your application will not be seen and responded to until late summer. This can cause some delays in admissions process and start date and families are advised to be prepared for this by having alternative schooling plans in place.
Do I have to be a part of a church to attend?
BVCS, like many independent schools, has an admissions policy that seeks to establish some foundational unity between a family and the school. This is one reason that BVCS actively encourages families to be a part of a local Christian church. However, we also realize that each family is unique. If the following statements are resonant with your family, we encourage you to apply.
- I/we accept the Bible as the infallible Word of God.
- At least one parent in this family is a born-again/professing Christian.
- Our family is (or will be) actively involved in a Bible-based Christian church.
- Our family desires a distinctively Biblical Christian Education and is committed to working with other families in “training up our children in the way they should go.”
- Our family is prepared to financially commit itself to the costs of operating the Bulkley Valley Christian School.
- All children in our family, during their time of attendance, will reside with at least one Christian parent or legal guardian.
- We, the parents and the children who desire to enrol, are Canadian Citizens, have Permanent Resident Status or are living here on a valid work or study permit.
Is there financial assistance available?
BVCS does operate a tuition assistance program but this offered judiciously and through a thorough process. As a matter of policy, tuition assistance is not available to a family in their first year at BVCS.
