4. Payment of Fees

After reviewing the application, we will inform you via email of the program into which the student will be accepted and the appropriate fees (see sample fees). We require full payment of fees in order to issue the student’s letter of acceptance (which is required for visa application purposes – international students only).

5. Receive Letter of Acceptance

Upon receipt of the full payment, we will send you a Letter of Acceptance and the official receipts. International students should apply for their student visa as soon as they receive the Letter of Acceptance.

6. Arrange Custodianship for International Students

If the student is under 19 years of age, Canadian Immigration requires custodianship. If he/she stays in our student dormitory or homestay program, Bodwell High School can assume supervisory responsibility and meet the custodianship requirement.

7. English Placement Test for International Students

An on-line English test will be arranged for all international students. Upon arrival at Bodwell High School, the student will be asked to write the English Placement Test. According to the test results, he/she will be placed in an appropriate level of the Academic Preparation (ESL) program or regular high school grade.


That’s it! We look forward to welcoming you at Bodwell High School!
