• If class space is available in the class an applicant qualifies for, he or she will be scheduled to sit for placement testing and English language testing.  The Enrolment committee will review results of these assessments before making enrolment decisions according to the Enrolment Policies. You will then be contacted with the Enrolment Committee’s decision.

• As an international school, we love our multicultural community! However, because our instruction and curriculum is in English, admission requires an appropriate proficiency in English speaking, reading and writing.
