Subject: School Fee: Catholic school vs Public School
  Does Catholic school charge tuition fee(like college or U) or any other school fees besides what public school charges ?
If the do charge, how much it would cost me (approx. amount) per year ?

I´m try to see which one is suitable for my child once he is arrived to Canada?

Could some one give me an idea how catholic school is different from public school IN TERMS of cost/expensive

Thx.

Quebec might be different on this subject and I do not have information about their system.

Catholic school is considered private school. In my area(Vancouver) there are a variety of private schools - not just Catholic. They rage in price for tuition depending on the calibre of the school, the facilites, the programs that they offer. I am guessing that you could spend $6,000 a year putting your child in private school.

before you do that, the Canadian public school system is very good. Standards are high and programs are often more varied that those offered in the private system.

What would be your reasons for putting your children in private school - that would help us advise you.

When I live in Regina, actually our dorm is close to" Canadian Bible College". Based on my knowledge, they have to pay tuition fee too, as Sharon said, it was considered as a private college, but at that time, ok that at time, also it´s in Saskatchewan, tuition fee is about 2000/year, don??t know right now?


yep, I am also wondering why you wanna send you kids or yourself to private one. Since my entire post-secondary education was done in public institution in Canada, didn´t feel anything went wrong, and I glad I meet a lot of people, by the way, public schools always have much lower tuition fee and many opportunities to get funding by "Student Loan" or HRDC.
