About Us

Established in 1922, Vancouver College is the only all boys, independent Catholic school in British Columbia. Vancouver College is served by the Congregation of Christian Brothers and held in trust and operated by Vancouver College Limited. As a faith and learning community, our mission is to educate boys and young men from diverse backgrounds in the tradition of Blessed Edmund Rice. At the core of Vancouver College is a community of Christian Brothers and dedicated lay educators motivated by a spirit of faith and zeal.

Through our commitment to the Essential Elements of Catholic Education at Vancouver College, we prepare our students for a life dedicated to achievement, leadership, and service to the church and community.

Advancement Office

The mandate of the Office of Advancement, under Vancouver College Limited (VCL), is to help meet the school’s current and future financial needs. Specifically, it is responsible for coordinating the development of funding priorities, external and internal communications, and maintaining the school’s relationships with current parents, alumni parents, alumni, the Catholic and corporate community. Like all independent schools across North America, Vancouver College relies on financial support over and above tuition fees to maintain its high level of education and to improve and develop campus facilities.
