Scholarships and Financial Assistance Info Session
Financial assistance is a cornerstone of our commitment to providing inclusive and accessible education. Financial assistance and a number of merit-based scholarships are available to students entering Grade 6 - 12. To learn more about how to apply, view the recording of our virtual information session below.
Did you know that BSS allocated $2.1 million in financial assistance for the 2024-25 school year? As the only girls' school in Canada to offer financial assistance as early as Grade 6, our goal is to ensure that cost isn’t a barrier for talented students to access a BSS education.
