Academic School Division Fee Transfers – Canadian Students
School Boards in each Canadian province receive funding from their provincial government to educate the students in their district. Some students from outside the province of Alberta may qualify for a transfer of funds from their home School Board. Parents can send a letter to the Superintendent of Schools for their child’s home School Board requesting a transfer of funds. This letter should include a description of the student’s talents and goals and why they wish to leave the province for their education. (i.e.: There is no similar facility within your province; therefore, you have decided to send her/him to Alberta for specialized training and education.) We suggest you also include a description of Alberta Ballet School expenses such as tuition, uniform, Residence Program (if applicable), etc. The earlier your requests are submitted, the greater the chance to receive funds.
