We’re so glad you’re considering ACS! Let us walk you through the admissions process for new families (K-12).
If you have any further questions, our Admissions Coordinator will be happy to help. If you’re interested in preschool admissions, please visit our preschool admissions page.
STAGE 1: INQUIRY
Interested in joining the ACS family? If your family is actively involved in a Bible-based, Christian church, we invite you to make an initial inquiry using our online form at abbotsfordchristian.com/inquiry.
You will receive a phone call from Stacey, our admissions coordinator, to discuss our admissions process and answer any questions. We’ll introduce you to a variety of ways to get a taste of our school community!
STAGE 2: APPLICATION
Once the application fee has been received, our admissions coordinator will create your personal online application package.
Completed applications are date stamped, which is referred to for waitlist scenarios. Everyone is served according to our Admissions Policy and Admissions Waitlist Guidelines.
Student assessment appointments will be arranged for all new K-12 students in order to provide us with a learning profile and to inform whether we are able to offer an educational program for the student.
Principals will make the final decision on whether acceptance is offered. You will be contacted regarding the outcome and next steps.
STAGE 3: REGISTERED
An Online Acceptance Offer Package will be sent to you and must be submitted by the expiry date in order to secure your child’s spot at ACS. Once submitted and complete, you are officially registered!
Over the next few months, you can expect to receive a welcome email and an invite to a campus orientation. We invite you to read through the ACS Parent and Student Handbook. This will help you to better understand all the ins and outs of ACS as we begin this journey together.
STAGE 4: Enrolled!
