Step 1: Download the Student Application Form and return it to AIS-Salzburg with an appropriate photo of the applicant. The Application Form can be filled out using the provided link. This initiates the admissions process in an orderly manner. Step 2: Submit up-to-date copies of transcripts from the present school with translation if necessary; for grades 7–9 only the previous year's transcripts are required, while grades 11–12 require records from all high school grades completed or currently enrolled. Step 3: Submit a copy of the applicant's passport photo page along with any currently-held visas for Austria or another Schengen nation. Step 4: Request that the applicant's current English and mathematics teachers submit a confidential recommendation to AIS-Salzburg. The teacher recommendations can be forwarded or downloaded. This helps inform the admission decision. Step 5: Pay the application fee (€150.00) by bank or online transfer to the AIS-Salzburg account. Upon reception, AIS-Salzburg will make a decision concerning enrollment or determine that further testing (English proficiency) and/or a personal or online interview with the applicant is required. If the applicant is accepted, a copy of the Enrollment Agreement and invoices for tuition and fees, the Capital Levy, and mandatory fees will be sent; parents of applicants have 30 days to consider the offer before it is revoked. AIS-Salzburg does not publish a hard application deadline, but visa-required enrollment may necessitate timely action (visa processing can take up to 90 days), and enrollment should be secured before the end of May for the following school year.
