Established in 1857, Albert College is a university-preparatory school teaching students from Junior Kindergarten to Grade 12/Post Graduate in Belleville, Ontario, Canada. Attracting students from Canada and over 25 different countries around the world, Albert College is Canada's oldest co-educational boarding and day school. Our strength lies in our challenging academic and co-curricular programme offered in a small, supportive, family environment. Albert College offers a full range of athletic, artistic, adventure and leadership opportunities. In our caring and vibrant community, students are motivated to take ownership of their intellectual and moral growth, and to develop the self-esteem and courage they need to deal successfully with the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. Grade 12 student, Deidre Small has been a boarding student at Albert College for two years and explains her experience: “I haven’t been at Albert as long as others, but it has definitely changed me. At sixteen I moved to a place I’ve never been, with no one I was familiar with except for my younger brother. I was excited to be out on my own experiencing new things, but I was also scared. I soon came to realize how friendly the environment of this school is. Being at Albert definitely changed my feelings of being away from home. The people here make it feel like a second home. It was definitely comforting my first year knowing that I had people standing by to help me, an advisor looking out for me, and all my teachers who just really want the best for me.” Our boarding programme begins in Grade 7.
