Wait for the application to be processed (1–2 business days). Once processed, a checklist will be assigned to your account, where you will then have the ability to upload required documents including:
Birth certificate and/or passport
Relevant report cards
Book an interview*
*For applications to non-entry grades, it may be several months before we know if we can move forward. Please be patient and we will contact you to set up your interview as space becomes available.
Interviews can be scheduled directly by parents/guardians through the Portal once the application checklist is assigned.
Students applying for Grade 7 are asked to prepare a portfolio to present during the interview. This portfolio can be created using any medium that best represents the student and allows the interviewer to learn more about them.
During the interview, students will first present their portfolio (approximately 10 minutes) and answer questions, followed by a discussion with the parents/guardians.
As Grade 8 is not an entry year, we do not conduct a full Admissions process until we have confirmed openings. Applications are encouraged should spaces become available. If we move forward with the application, an Admissions member will be in contact to schedule your interview.

LAND ACKNOWLEDGMENT
We wish to acknowledge this land on which Branksome operates. For thousands of years, it has been the traditional land of the Wendat, the Seneca, and most recently, the Mississaugas of the Credit River. Today, this meeting place is still the home to many Indigenous peoples from across Turtle Island and we are grateful to have the opportunity to work and go to school on this land.*
*The Land Acknowledgement may evolve as we honour our commitment to Truth and Reconciliation in partnership with Indigenous communities.
