Costs for the academic program at LCA and LCVA are competitive as compared with those at other private schools, and for international students we have several scholarships available that makes us a very affordable alternative. In most cases international students pay the same academic fees that Ontario residents pay. Costs other than tuition fees, such as health insurance and costs for the school uniform, are very reasonable as well. Moreover, looking ahead to tertiary education, the Canadian provincial governments heavily subsidize tuition for post-secondary education so that the cost of attending a high-quality university or college is generally much lower in Canada than in other countries. 

All the fees listed below are based on minimum standards. Room and Board includes a good solid breakfast and dinner. However, many teens can consume an exorbitant amount of food during growth spurts. Please ensure that your child has enough spending money to supplement their diet if necessary. Homestay with our local families is an extension of our ministry. Non-affiliated families charge between $900-$1200 for room and board. Please respect the families who are willing to serve and be a blessing to your child.
