Apply to CMA

Thank you for your interest in Coast Mountain Academy. Every year, our admissions team supports applicants and their families as they work through the application process at CMA. This process is intended to be fun for the applicants and designed to provide staff with the information needed to make an informed decision in regard to the suitability of the applicant for CMA. Our student body is engaged, curious, and active. Our admissions team is looking to admit applicants who are willing to participate in a good conversation, ask questions of peers and adults, take chances, fail sometimes, respect the opinions of others, and most importantly have a strong desire to learn.

The first step in the application process at CMA is to complete a New Student Application form online at the MyCMA portal. Once completed and reviewed by the admissions team, suitable applicants will be asked to campus for an admissions interview as well as some fun group activities. After those two steps, applicants will either be declined or offered a spot at CMA. It is then up to the successful applicants and their families to decide whether they choose to accept the spot at CMA and join our growing community.

We are now accepting new student applications for the 2025/26 academic year.

A few important things to note:

  • To be assured consideration in our first round of admissions offers we ask that a complete new student application be submitted by March 31, 2025.
  • The new student application is online and can only be accessed by creating a parent or guardian account on the MyCMA portal.
  • Only one parent or guardian email address and password can be used to log in and out of the MyCMA portal.
  • Please read through the application requirements listed below before you start the online application to ensure you have access to all required documents.
  • When you are ready to get started on the new student application please click the ‘Apply to CMA’ button below. This will take you to the MyCMA portal where you can create an account and then complete the application.

Application Requirements

If you are ready to apply to our school, here is a detailed list of what we will need:

  • A complete New Student Application form
  • Application fee ($350 non-refundable)
  • Passport-sized image of the student taken within the past 12 months
  • A copy of the applicant’s:
    • birth certificate or passport
    • final report cards for the last two years
    • IEPs and Learning Assessments from the last 2 years (if applicable)
  • Contact information for both a teacher and community member reference
  • Parent/Guardian documentation – a copy of one of the following: Canadian Birth Certificate/Passport, or valid Visa/Permit, or PR Card
  • Proof of BC residency with a parent name and current address (utility bill, phone/cable bill)

Optional:

  • Copies of school and/or community achievement certificates
  • Copies of awards
  • Samples of art

We appreciate the time each applicant invests in their application to CMA. Once the completed application form, supporting materials, and application fees are all received, the application will be reviewed by the Admissions team.

It is important to note that CMA often receives more applications than we have space to accept. All applications will be reviewed but unfortunately, we can not guarantee admission will be offered to all applicants.

Please feel free to contact our Director of Admissions, Tracy Keeling at 604-390-3262 if you have any questions regarding the admissions process.
