Breaking Barriers with Financial Assistance
Are you considering an independent school but not sure how to afford it? At BSS, we believe cost shouldn’t be a barrier to an outstanding education.
That’s why we have more than $2.1 million in financial assistance available to current and incoming Day and Boarding students — the most of any girls’ school in Canada. BSS is also the only girls’ school in Toronto to offer financial assistance from Grades 6 to 12.
Financial assistance supports families who need extra help with tuition, as well as school-related costs such as supplies, textbooks, technology, uniforms and more. The amount of assistance can range from $2,500 to full tuition, based on financial need. Students are also eligible to apply for assistance to offset the costs of BSS Summer Academy courses and one out-of-province or international Global Learning trip during their time at school. Additionally, we offer a number of scholarships, awarded based on academic, leadership and/or artistic achievements, in amounts ranging from $2,500 to $20,000.
Applications for financial assistance are reviewed by an independent third party, which then makes a recommendation based on the family’s financial information.
To learn more about financial assistance at BSS and the application process, visit our Financial Assistance page, or join us at our virtual Scholarships and Financial Assistance Information Session on Tuesday, November 5 at 6:00 pm.
