FBCA is a Christian community committed to providing a nurturing, challenging, educational environment for your family. Our faculty seek to cultivate students by encouraging academic and spiritual development in every activity. God is working through our private school community and we invite you to consider joining us on our journey.
We would be honored to assist you in determining whether First Baptist Classical Academy is the best private school for your family. FBCA uses an admissions and enrollment procedure that resembles the application process used in many other private schools.

4 Steps to Apply
1. Submitting an Application
Your admissions file is opened once we receive a completed application and fee. You can apply and pay online or fill out the Application Form and return it via email to fbc@firstbaptistkamloops.org. After you have submitted your Application via email, please drop by the office at anytime weekdays, 8:30-3:00 in order to pay your fee via cash or cheque.
2. Testing
Students applying for admission are required to take a placement exam. See our entrance standards for more information.
3. Family Interview
The family interview is a vital part of the admissions process. Once all paperwork and testing is complete, we meet with both parents and children together. The interview provides a time for us to get to know one another more personally and an opportunity for you to ask questions.
4. Timing
Ideally, the process begins in the Spring of the academic year prior to the year your student hopes to attend. Priority applications must be turned in by June 15. After priority admissions are complete, applications are evaluated on a continuing basis and spaces are offered as available. If an applicant and family are found to be admissible but no space is available at that time, you have the option of remaining on a wait pool to be considered should space become available.
Many parents inquire about tuition assistance. If you have a financial need, allow us to explore what we can do to help. Visit our Tuition Page for more information.
