FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AT WPGA 

WPGA is committed to fostering a diverse, inclusive, and equitable school community. Our financial assistance program is designed to provide tuition support for families who demonstrate financial need and may not otherwise be able to afford the full cost of a WPGA education.

WHO CAN APPLY

Need-based bursaries are available for prospective and current families with students entering or enrolled in grades 5–12. Financial assistance is intended to support families who are unable to afford the full cost of tuition, whether due to ongoing financial limitations or temporary hardship. For applicant families, the admission criteria and expectations are the same for all students, regardless of their family’s financial circumstances. Because these factors can change year to year, all families must submit a new application annually.

APPLICATION PROCESS

WPGA partners with Apple Financial Services (AFS), a third-party organization and member of Financial Aid for Canadian Students, to assess financial need. AFS conducts a confidential and independent review of each family’s financial situation and provides a recommendation to WPGA’s Financial Assistance Committee.

Financial assistance decisions are based on:
  • Demonstrated financial need
  • Number of applications received
  • Available school funding
