WIC students are ready for the challenges and opportunities life presents them. Through academic rigour and a supportive environment, our students become resilient problem-solvers who believe they can, and will achieve what they set out to do.
Together, WIC students and faculty build a powerful culture of creativity that is without boundaries. We are critical thinkers who challenge ideas, pave new paths and encourage inventiveness whenever possible.
West Island College is a university-preparatory school that emphasizes respect, responsibility and citizenship. We believe that inspiring our students to pursue excellence in academics, leadership, athletics and global awareness prepares them for success in the 21st century and beyond. In addition to exceptional teachers, an Advanced Placement Program, small class sizes and extensive co-curricular activities, WIC offers courses in French (Immersion or Second Language) and Spanish (Second Language).
From our International Studies program and authentic student leadership opportunities, to Outdoor Education and WIC’s Institutes, students are challenged to discover what hands-on learning really means. WIC is dedicated to inspiring our students, not only through our academic courses, timetabling and extraordinary experiential opportunities, but through our physical environment and student supports. A WIC education not only builds a strong knowledge base, but inspires students to connect their passions to purpose for the rest of their lives.
With 36 years of success in Calgary, West Island College has a proven track record of innovation, growth, success and leadership.
