Why Vancouver College?

At Vancouver College, we educate young men guided by the Gospel values and in the tradition of our spiritual founder Blessed Edmund Rice. Our students are immersed in their spirituality, motivated and eager learners in and outside of the classrooms. The Essential Elements are always practiced in everything we do in our community to help foster each boy's mind, body and spirit.  

Joining Vancouver College means your son will be part of our rich 100-year history and be part of a group of men who are recognized as inspiring leaders and change-makers. It also means he will be supported in developing moral character, confidence, faith-centred thinking and lifelong friendships. Our mission is to have each boy:

Leave here a better man: faith filled leaders living lives of love and service who pursue excellence of mind, body and spirit.
