APPLICATIONS

We are delighted that you are considering West Point Grey Academy for your child's education. Applications for the 2027-2028 school year are now open.

First Nations Legacy Scholarship: WPGA offers scholarships to eligible students on the Nominal Roll of the Musqueam Indian Band, Squamish Nation, and Tsleil-Waututh Nation. Interested applicants are encouraged to reach out to the Enrolment Office to learn more about scholarship availability and eligibility and to request an application fee waiver code. 
Before you apply:
Please review these core requirements. For full policy details, please refer to our Admissions Guidebook.
Age & Grade Placement: Placement is determined by birth year to ensure social and developmental alignment. Please verify your child’s grade placement using our Age Requirement Chart (section 2.1) in the guidebook before starting your application.
 
In-Person Assessments: All assessments and group activities are conducted in-person. Virtual assessments are not available.

SSAT: As part of your application package, students applying to Grades 8–12 will need to complete the Middle Level (Grade 8) or Upper Level (Grades 9–12) SSAT by November 14. Please click here for more information about the SSAT.
 
Legacy Applications: We offer priority consideration to siblings, staff children, and children of alumni; however, enrolment is not guaranteed. All candidates go through the same standard admission review process. As part of this process, we carefully consider grade-level availability and ensure our program can fully support each child’s academic and social development. 
 
English Language Proficiency: WPGA does not offer specialized English Language Learner (ELL) or English as an Additional Language (EAL) programs. Applicants must demonstrate English proficiency appropriate to their grade level to ensure they can fully engage with the curriculum.
 
Residency Requirements: At least one parent must be a Canadian citizen, a permanent resident, or hold a valid Canadian work permit or reside in Canada on official duties. This status must be valid at the time an offer of enrolment is extended.
 
Use of Agents and Consultants: To ensure we build a relationship with every family, we work directly with parents and guardians. We do not engage with third-party educational agents or consultants.
