Personal Account Statements Help

The following solutions answer the questions most frequently asked by LCS Personal Account Statement users.

Q1: Where do I find the Student Record ID?
All methods of payment require a unique Student Record ID for each student, which is available from:
  • any student account statement issued by Lakefield College School; or,
  • refer to your child's acceptance letter; or,
  • our Admissions team <admissions@lcs.on.ca> for all Registration Fee payments.

However, in two special cases, please use the following as the Student Record ID:
  • 44010011 for all Application Fee payments only; or,
  • 47000001 for all Summer Online Academy Fee payments only.

It is very important to include the correct Student Record ID with each payment to ensure the payment is credited to your account. If possible, it is also recommended that payments include the student’s full name.

Depending on the payment option, you may also need to provide some or all of the following details to ensure proper delivery of your payment:

  • Payee or Recipient Name: Lakefield College School
  • Account Number: provide the Student Record ID as outlined above
  • Note or Comment: provide the student’s full name and Student Record ID
Q2: What is my best payment option, if I have a Canadian bank account?
  1. Online banking, as it is fast and adds no additional bank fees for a payment.

    Please visit your personal online bank to make a payment, using the correct
    Student Record ID as the account number.

  2. Pay by cheque, bank draft, or money order, which is slower but may also be free of additional bank fees.

    Student Record ID, to:
