Good to know before applying

Academic admission thresholds.

Math ≥ 80 · Science ≥ 80 · English ≥ 70 · French ≥ 70
Grades from the most recent report card (whole or decimal, e.g. 87.5).

These thresholds are not an elitism test. They ensure that every child joining our nonprofit can keep up the pace and fully benefit from the support. When a child struggles during the year, BlackGenius puts in place a dedicated catch-up plan.

Frequently asked questions

Enrollment FAQ.

My child doesn't meet all the thresholds — can they still apply?

Not at this time. The thresholds exist to ensure every child can keep up with our programs' pace. We're working on a "bridge" offering for high-potential children close to the threshold — stay tuned via our newsletter.

What is the membership cost?

The 2026-2027 dues (annual membership fee and quarterly dues) will be communicated by a coordinator during the interview. In case of genuine financial hardship, arrangements are possible — discuss this at that time.

Does BlackGenius Canada replace school?

No. We are not a school. We support your child alongside their regular school, with weekly sessions, summer camps and five signature events per year.

What happens after I submit the form?

Within 5 business days, a coordinator will contact you to schedule a family interview (30 minutes, by video or in person). Following that interview, you'll receive a decision within 10 days. If admitted, you'll receive the membership kit and confidentiality commitment to sign.

Is my data secure?

Yes. Form data is encrypted in transit and stored in a secure environment in accordance with Quebec's Bill 25. Only authorized coordinators have access. You can request deletion of your data at any time at contact@blackgeniuscanada.org.

Do we need to live in Montreal?

Not necessarily. Our in-person sessions take place in Montreal, but many activities are available online or in hybrid format. Regional chapters are being considered for the future.

What about the confidentiality of children's information?

All information shared within BlackGenius Canada (report cards, profiles, correspondence) is protected by a confidentiality commitment signed by every parent. See our privacy policy (Bill 25).

One last hesitation?

Ask us your question before applying. We respond within 5 business days, no strings attached.
