About international schools in Armenia

IB schools in Armenia are relatively few and concentrated in Yerevan with an IB boarding college in Dilijan; some schools offer only the Diploma Programme while at least one local school holds authorisation for Primary Years, Middle Years and Diploma Programmes. Instruction in IB settings is commonly delivered in English alongside Armenian-language teaching, with Russian still present in parts of the school system and bilingual models combining national and international syllabuses. Published tuition varies widely: some Armenian bilingual or social-project schools publish annual fees in the region of several million Armenian dram, while independent international-model schools commonly publish fees equivalent to several thousand euros per year and many schools offer scholarships or financial aid. The Armenian academic year officially starts on 1 September, and international schools typically manage admissions through a mix of fixed application windows for a September intake and some rolling places, with assessments, interviews and deposits commonly part of the process.

FAQs for Armenia

Which IB programmes are available in Armenia and how common are they?
Armenia has a small number of IB World Schools: several institutions run the Diploma Programme, and at least one school in Yerevan is authorised to offer PYP, MYP and DP across age ranges; there is also an IB boarding college in Dilijan that runs the DP. The presence of full PYP→MYP→DP pathways is limited, so families should check each school’s IB authorisations rather than assume every international school offers all three stages.
What languages of instruction should we expect in IB schools in Armenia?
Many IB programmes in Armenia use English as the primary language of instruction while retaining Armenian-language tuition for national curriculum or bilingual components; Russian-language provision remains available in some schools. Expect schools to describe clearly whether they use an English-medium model, a bilingual Armenian - English model, or Armenian as the main medium with international subjects in English.
How much do IB international schools in Armenia typically charge and are scholarships common?
Published fees vary considerably: some Armenian bilingual or locally rooted schools publish annual tuition around several million Armenian dram, while international-model schools commonly publish fees equivalent to multiple thousands of euros per year; exact figures depend on grade level, boarding and additional services. Several schools operate scholarship, merit or needs-based support programmes, so families should request the school’s latest fee schedule and financial-aid policy during the enquiry stage.
When should we apply and what does the admissions process usually involve?
The official Armenian academic year begins on 1 September, so most schools have application deadlines in the months before a September start; some international schools also run rolling admissions or separate January intakes. Admissions typically include an enquiry, written application, language or subject assessments (especially for older pupils), a family interview and a deposit or acceptance deadline, so start enquiries several months before your preferred start date.
Will an Armenian IB Diploma be recognised by universities abroad?
The IB Diploma is an internationally recognised qualification and students who complete the Diploma Programme in Armenia hold the same credential that universities worldwide accept, subject to the usual entry requirements and subject choices. Families should check specific university prerequisites (for example subject combinations and grades) and confirm with the school whether it provides university-application guidance and recognised subject choices.
What should relocating families look for when comparing IB schools in Armenia?
Check each school’s IB authorisation (which programmes it is authorised to teach), the medium of instruction and how Armenian national requirements are integrated, published fees and the availability of scholarships, as well as pastoral care, class sizes and university-counselling support. If boarding is relevant, confirm dormitory standards and visa/guardianship arrangements; visiting the school or arranging a virtual tour and asking for recent inspection or authorisation documentation will help verify claims.
