 The Admissions Process


Admission to De La Salle College is based on:

  • A personal interview
  • An assessment of all required application documentation (see Instructions Link above) such as the student’s school records, teachers’ comments and the SSAT (Secondary School Admissions Test - www.ssat.org/ontario) for grades 7 and 9 and an in house test for grade 5 and grade 6 students.
  • Previous co-curricular experience

The admissions process begins in the fall with our Open House.  Once the required application material has been submitted to the College, the De La Salle Admissions Office will contact the family to arrange an interview.  All required documentation should be submitted by the application deadline of December 11, 2009.

Once all applicants have completed the Admissions process, De La Salle College will be able to determine which students are best-suited and best prepared to join the school. Admissions decision letters will be mailed to parents by February 22nd 2010.
