Student Life
Albert College has been called home by many generations of students, both boarding and day. The students and staff at Albert will soon become your extended family. Albert College offers residency to both male and female students from grades seven to post graduate. A "home away from home" to students from across the world, Albert College provides its students with the unique opportunity to learn and understand about other cultures. There are three residences at Albert College: Baker House, Graham Hall and Victoria Manor. Male boarding students from grades 7-10 live in Baker House, while the senior boys call Graham Hall home. Victoria Manor houses all boarding female students. The junior and senior girls are divided into two different wings. All residences have common rooms with TV's, gaming equipment, lounge furniture, laundry facilities and areas for making light snacks. All rooms are wired for computer access to the Internet and our local network. The residential lifestyle offers many opportunities for boarding students to become leaders among their peers. The flat senior program is specifically designed to develop leadership skills in young students. Flat seniors assist residential staff in numerous activities, from social events to study hall sign-ins. Day and residential prefects, members of a team of graduate students elected by the school, also provide leadership and support to the student body. The residential teams are also available twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week to provide support, friendship, and guidance. At Albert College, students will learn about other cultures and make lifelong friends while also learning a great deal about themselves as individuals. We treat our community of boarders as an extended family that studies, learns, works, plays and grows together.We look forward to welcoming you to our home!

Summer Programs ▼
Albert College has created an exciting summer program where students aged 12 to 18 years learn English and experience the wonders of Canada throughout the summer. Each participant receives classroom instruction by day and enjoys a variety of exciting attractions in the evenings and on weekends. Trips are designed to be entertaining and to provide an opportunity to further improve English skills.
Students will be better prepared for studying in an English-speaking school with the ESL study program focused on listening, reading, writing and speaking skills, or when taking English as an academic subject in their country of origin.
Albert College is Canada’s oldest, independent, co-educational boarding and day school. Founded in 1857, the College provides advanced academic programs to students from over 20 nations. The main school is a historic building that was built in 1923. Albert’s beautiful 25 acre campus features plenty of green space to relax, read, study and play.
