Each year, funds are set aside for tuition assistance to help families who could not otherwise afford tuition at BCS.

The majority of this amount comes from the profits of annual BCS Golf Tournament. For the 2018 – 2019 school year over $50,000 in assistance was given out.

These funds are made available to new and returning families of BCS who complete the bursary application based on the financial need of each family.

Please contact Financial Manager, Nathan Randall, if you are interested in learning more about the bursary program at BCS.

BCS utilize the online service of ISM’s Financial Aid for School Tuition (FAST) to process applications.

FAST does not decide whether financial assistance will be given or how much to give; rather FAST provides a need-based financial aid analysis service which includes a recommendation of what a family should reasonably contribute toward tuition. All information from FAST is kept confidential. Upon approval by the Finance Committee, bursary awards will then be sent to families.

  • In fairness to other applicants, bursary applicants will request only what they really need
