Admissions
Welcome!
We are so glad you have decided to start the application process! The first step is to complete an Application Inquiry Form.
The Application Inquiry Form takes approximately 15-30 minutes and must be completed in one session (progress cannot be saved). This is not a full application – just an expression of interest for preliminary review and determines whether your family align with our current enrollment priorities. Successful applicants will receive an email with the link to the full application process.
Please note that applications for the 2027–2028 school year open on September 15, 2026.
The Next Steps
If your inquiry aligns with our enrollment priorities, you will receive an invitation to apply by email. This invitation will be sent directly to the email address provided in your inquiry.
What to Expect:
- You will receive an email containing a secure link to the full application.
- The full application requires more detailed information and supporting documents so we can complete a thorough review of your family’s eligibility (see below for full list of documents that will be required).
- Application Fee: A non‑refundable application fee of $150 per application applies, up to a maximum of $300 per family. Payment is completed online after you submit the full application. Payments may also be made by e‑transfer to: accounts@wrca.ca.
- Language Assessment Requirement: If required, we will arrange a language assessment. The cost is an additional $150 per student.
Mandatory:
- Student’s Canadian birth certificate showing parents’ names, or (if not born in Canada) the student’s non-Canadian birth certificate and passport
- Supporting documentation for Legal Residency of Parents Form (e.g., parent’s Canadian passport, citizenship card, permanent resident card, or work permit)
- Supporting documentation for ordinary residency of parents in BC (e.g., parent’s BC Care Card/Services Card, BC Driver’s License, utility bill, or rental agreement)
- Student’s most recent report card (Grade 1-11) or progress report from preschool or kindergarten
- Pastoral reference form. To understand more about what it means to be a Christian, we encourage you to attend an Alpha course. CLICK HERE to find out more.
If applicable:
- Any relevant court orders pertaining to custody or guardianship of student
- Doctor’s note and emergency procedures instructions for life-threatening allergies/illness
- Current IEP
- Any specialist or medical reports relevant to the student’s education
Once your application is complete, we will contact you to schedule a family interview. Students and parents are required to attend. This is a chance for us to get to know your family and answer your questions.
For Junior Kindergarten and Kindergarten, applicants will also meet with a teacher as part of the process.
After the family interview, you will be notified in writing of the outcome of your application. Decisions for the following school year are typically communicated in February/March. Applications received after February 1 are processed as quickly as possible.
Upon receipt of an acceptance letter for the following school year, you will be required to pay a $2,000 non-refundable tuition deposit which will be withdrawn via the Pre-Authorized Debit agreement immediately upon acceptance, and which officially reserves your child/ren’s seat at WRCA. This deposit will be deducted from the overall tuition owing for the upcoming academic school year.
We want to ensure that no matter what grade your child joins us, they have a happy and strong start. Age-appropriate orientations and buddy connections are in place to ensure your child feels connected even before the first day of school.
