Senior Tuition & Fees

List of 4 items.

• Tuition

  The fees for the 2018/2019 school year are $19,923. This includes tuition, as well as the snack fee, student supplies fee, and activity fee.

• Other Fees

  Enrollment Fee
  An Enrollment Fee of $200.00 is payable at the time a student is admitted to ECS. This fee is credited to the final statement of account on June 30th provided the student is enrolled at ECS for the entire School year. If a student leaves ECS prior to the end of the School year, the Enrollment Fee is forfeited.
  
  

  New Student Building Fund

  All families of new students are invited to make a $1,500 gift to the School in support of the ECS New Student Building Fund. The Building Fund provides the necessary funding for capital improvements, and capital expenditures not covered by tuition fees and government subsidies. Tax receipts will be issued.

• Bursaries

  Thanks to the support of generous donors, ECS is able to provide financial support in the form of bursaries to those students who need it. The number of bursaries awarded each year may vary, but the ultimate target is 15% of the grade 6 - 11 population. The amount of the bursary will vary according to need, but will not exceed 75% of tuition. The recipient must meet the entrance requirements of the School, but not necessarily be a scholarship-level student. However, the bursary does not disqualify a scholarship candidate.
  
  ECS uses Apple Financial Services (AFP) to process bursary applications. AFP will provide a standardized and unbiased evaluation in a confidential setting. Applications can be made here. Deadline is October 22, 2018.

• Scholarships

  The Barrie Birks School Scholarship
  Barrie Birks was an ECS parent, Board member, and Foundation Advisory Board member who contributed to the ECS learning community in countless ways before his untimely death in 2002. His wife Ann and daughter Kim established the Barrie Birks School Scholarship to honour his memory. It was Mr. Birks’ wish that the School reflect Montreal’s rich social, religious, linguistic, economic, and ethnic diversity. This scholarship covers the full cost of tuition for Grades 7 through 11. A recipient is selected from among students applying to Grade 7 from outside of the School on the basis of academic merit, demonstrated financial need, leadership potential, citizenship skills, and community service commitment.
  
  The Diana B. Torrey Scholarship
  Diana Torrey graduated from ECS in 1978. After obtaining her B.A. in Sociology at St. Lawrence University, she founded Torrey Food Communications in San Francisco, specializing in recipe development, editorial photography, and advertising relating to food. Ms. Torrey passed away in September 2003, after a courageous fight with cancer. Her family has established the Diana B. Torrey Scholarship to honour her memory. This renewable scholarship covers 75% of the cost of tuition for one year. It is awarded annually to a student (whether new to ECS, or already enrolled) entering Grade 9, 10, or 11. In addition to financial need and academic merit, the ideal candidate should demonstrate an interest in the arts and social sciences, and exhibit strong leadership and citizenship potential (including a concern for helping her fellow students). 
  
  The R.H. Webster Foundation Scholarships
  There are two R.H. Webster Foundation Scholarships, both covering full tuition for Grades 7 through 11. Recipients will be chosen on the basis of academic merit, demonstrated financial need, sense of responsibility to self and the greater community, and leadership qualities.
