Step3

Interview

Grades 10 is not a traditional entry year and spaces are dependent on attrition. Should a space become available, we will review all applications and invite select candidates to an interview and to participate in an assessment. We encourage families who are considering Grade 10 to complete the SSAT assessment prior to January 12, 2024. To register for the SSAT, please visit their website.

Step4

Assessment

All Grade 10 applicants must write the SSAT. Please visit ssat.org for testing dates. Applicants may be interviewed prior to writing the SSAT. If you are unable to schedule a time to take the SSAT please contact [email protected]. For any student applying for Grade 10, the SSAT must be completed by January 12, 2024.

Please note: If English is not the applicant’s first language, they may be asked to write the IELTS or TOEFL assessment to determine their English proficiency.

Step5

Financial Support

Deadline to apply for Financial Support: January 1, 2024

Thanks to many gifts from alumni, parents and friends, Havergal is able to move toward eliminating the tuition fee barrier for exceptional students in the Upper School who otherwise would not be able to attend Havergal. Financial support is awarded in the form of a bursary. Bursaries are based on demonstrated financial need and are confidential.

To be considered, please complete the Financial Assistance for Canadian Students (FACS) application form available on applefinancialservices.ca. The deadline for new students to apply is January 1, 2024. Financial support decisions are separate from admission decisions. Visit Tuition, Financial Support & Scholarships to learn more and to apply. Havergal also offers several Entrance Scholarships that are based on the financial need demonstrated by the candidate.

Admission Decision

All admission decisions will be emailed to families on February 23, 2024.
