Middle & Senior School
An independent education can be affordable. Albert College offers a variety of payment plans, scholarships, bursaries and tax credits to make the school more accessible to deserving students. Students must successfully complete the application process prior to being considered for scholarships or financial aid.
The purpose of the scholarship and financial aid program is to recognize excellence in a number of different fields and to give deserving students the opportunity of an Albert College education regardless of their families’ financial resources. Each year, Albert awards over $300,000 in aid in addition to the Frederick Sydney Smith '31 Scholarship for Bermudian students. Financial aid may consist of a combination of a scholarship and a bursary. One in five students receives some support.

All fees and charges are in Canadian dollars. Fees are not subject to the Ontario Harmonized Goods and Services Tax (H.S.T.).

Extra charges may include: text books (https://store.csbe.net/select.aspx?route=alcl), clothing and supplies, sundries and snacks sold in the Guild Shop, professional medical services not covered by the Ontario Health Plan, team uniforms, dry cleaning and mending services, travel to and from home and taxis to medical services, musical instrument rental, career testing and university admissions applications, private tutoring, graduation pictures, replacement student agenda, damage charges, ski and adventure trips, NSF cheques, and other optional events as they occur.
In order to maintain charging privileges, it is expected that the Sundry Expense Advance will be replenished as needed throughout the year. Cash advances and allowances to students processed by credit card are subject to a 3% administration fee.
Enrollment Fee (non-refundable) $2,000
This one time fee is payable upon acceptance of an offer of admission for new students. Receipt of the enrollment fee secures a place for a new student. This fee is not an advance payment of tuition and cannot be applied to other outstanding amounts. The fee is used to fund ongoing property and building rehabilitation.
Custodial Fee $500
Albert College requires that each international boarding student has a custodian while attending school. An international family may identify their own Canadian-based custodian for their son or daughter. The custodian must be English-speaking, over the age of 21 and must reside within Canada (preferably Ontario). A custodian could be a family member or close friend of the family. If a student does not have a custodian living in Canada they must be prepared to pay a fee to an outside agency or for the school to act as the student's custodian. Please note, proof of a Canadian custodian is required to apply for a study permit.
English As A Second Language (ESL) $2,500
Students whose first language is not English must be prepared to pay this fee based on the results of diagnostic testing and the recommendation of the Assistant Head - Senior School.
