Introduction

Fees
*Application fees*
- Registration fee: CAD 200 per student (registration fee referenced in the school's financial aid/bursary information).

*Tuition fees by year group (amounts per term / per year)*
- The school's publicly posted fees information does not publish specific tuition amounts by year group or per term for the 2026/27 academic year (nor does it publish a per-term billing table for 2025/26). The publicly available fees pages describe what is included in tuition but do not list numeric tuition rates or per-term amounts.

*What is included in tuition (useful when comparing costs between year groups)*
- Educational materials (books, workbooks, photocopy materials) are included.
- Excursions, field trips, regular activities such as swimming and gym, and many school events are covered.
- Extra-curricular program costs per term (transport to/from events, facility rentals, coaching, teacher supervision) are included.
- Technology services (student email accounts, access to parent/student portals, wireless network maintenance and upgrades) are included.
- Lunchtime supervision and cafeteria access are included; hot meals are available to purchase at CAD 8 per meal.
- Daycare (before and after school supervision for elementary students) is provided as part of school services; the school notes before/after care hours for elementary students.

*Billing schedule and payment terms*
- No public per-term or per-month billing schedule, invoicing calendar, nor detailed payment-terms (due dates, late fees, or automatic-payment options) are posted on the school's public fees pages. The publicly available admissions/fees material does not state a published billing schedule or specific payment deadlines.

*Boarding fees (if applicable)*
- Boarding is not offered; Emmanuel Christian School in Dollard‑des‑Ormeaux operates as a day school (no boarding program is listed). Therefore no boarding fees apply.

*Other costs or fees (items not included in tuition and typical additional charges)*
- Uniforms are not included in the published fee inclusions and must be paid separately.
- International trips, the graduation trip, and optional activities are listed as not included and are charged separately when applicable.
- The fees material references separate charges or arrangements for items such as the Grad trip, certain international travel costs, and optional activities.

*Tax receipts and donation receipts*
- Elementary parents: maximum Relevé 24 tax receipt of CAD 900 and an additional CAD 250 donation receipt (as described in the school's fee summary).
- High school parents: CAD 250 donation receipt (as described in the school's fee summary).

*Financial aid / bursaries relevant to fees*
- The school operates a bursary/financial-aid program and references bursary application deadlines and procedures; bursaries are applied toward family tuition obligations. A bursary program and specific deadlines are published in the school's fees information. (Bursary details and deadlines are program-specific and handled separately from standard fee billing.)

*Refund information*
- No public refund or tuition-withdrawal policy (for registration fees, deposits, tuition or cafeteria/meals) is published on the school's public fees and admissions pages. The publicly available material does not provide a refund schedule or explicit cancellation/refund terms.

*Fee payment options*
- The school's publicly available admissions and fees pages do not list specific accepted payment methods (credit card, bank transfer, direct debit, etc.) or the exact mechanisms for payment of tuition and ancillary fees. The admissions page points to an online registration portal for enrolment activity but does not publish the accepted payment channels on the public pages.

Summary of available facts and gaps
- Available facts: the school's public fees information describes what is included in tuition (educational materials, excursions, many extracurricular costs, technology, lunchtime supervision), lists a registration fee of CAD 200 per student, provides meal pricing (CAD 8 per hot meal) and tax-receipt guidance, and confirms daycare services for elementary students.
- Gaps that prevent a full per-year / per-term fee breakdown: the school's publicly posted fees and admissions pages do not publish numerical tuition rates by year group, per-term charges, a billing schedule, payment terms, accepted payment methods, or a refund/withdrawal schedule for the 2026/27 (or 2025/26) academic year. Because those numeric and procedural details are not published in the publicly available materials, per-year and per-term tuition amounts and specific payment terms cannot be provided here.
