Despite charging among the highest tuition fees for a private day school in Quebec, Selwyn House also chooses to take subsidies from the provincial government which is available to all private schools for Grade 7 to 11. All students in the secondary school section therefore must have a certificate of eligibility allowing them to attend government-funded English schools in Quebec. Students without the certificate can currently only attend the unsubsidized primary section from Kindergarten to Grade 6, and must have received the required certificate by the end of Grade 6 in order to continue attending the school. Selwyn House will no longer take subsidies starting in September 2021 and students will no longer need the certificate for any grade from that point on. By foregoing subsidies, the school will be able to broaden its potential student pool and attract the wealthiest students from French elementary schools who are currently barred from attending Selwyn House’s secondary school due to Bill 101.
