Admissions

Admissions
1. Eligibility and overview:
Admission is open to students of all nationalities who can access and benefit from the international curriculum and programmes offered by the school. The school provides the IB Primary Years Programme, Middle Years Programme and Diploma Programme, with specialist teachers and dedicated IB programme coordinators guiding learning. Additional support is available for non-Azerbaijani students who cannot follow language courses in the local language.

2. What makes EAS special:
Highly qualified teachers, including staff recruited internationally; a support network for students' social, language and learning needs as well as university counselling; and two state-of-the-art campuses with modern science labs, top sports facilities (including a swimming pool and gymnasium), a modern theatre, a fully equipped computer lab, music and art rooms, a spacious library and a large dining area. An individualized approach to learning recognises the different needs and perspectives of our students and families.

3. Admissions process and campus visits:
The best way to learn about EAS is to visit the campus for an admissions tour; the admissions office can be contacted to arrange this.

4. Application process by level and key steps:
Early Learning Centre (ELC) eligibility is based on age and an assessment of social, emotional, physical and mental maturity, with ongoing teacher observations. Primary Education (Grades 1-4) uses age eligibility (6 by December 31) and an internal online test in English and Mathematics plus a motor-skills assessment; conditional admission may be offered if results indicate potential for improvement, with contract and fees in place. For MYP (Grades 5-9), students are tested for cognitive abilities and English language proficiency, with Azerbaijani interviews to gauge language needs and potential EAL provision. DP (Grades 10-12) entry requires prior IB grounding (where applicable), an application, an essay, an interview, and a panel decision; notification follows, with language placement assessments as needed.

5. Documentation and contracts:
The following documents are typically required: parent/guardian application, photos, original and copy of national ID (Azerbaijani) or passport/residency for international students, school transfer certificates and transcripts (where applicable), and medical certificates; a contract is signed and school fees arranged upon admission. Conditional admissions may require probation and ongoing evaluation during the initial period.

6. Appeals, assessment and language placement:
If a decision is appealed, a formal process is available with specified timelines; further assessments may be conducted to ensure optimum placement in language and curriculum courses. A psychological assessment is conducted for ELC, Primary and Secondary to evaluate thinking, learning, behaviour and other aspects, and results inform planning for support where needed.

7. Transfer and ministry requirements:
For grade advancement and transfer, families may need to follow the relevant ministry procedures, including transfer links as applicable. The admissions policy also notes alignment with appropriate placement and progression within the IB pathways.

Waitlist
Admissions decisions fall into four categories: Accept, Accept conditionally, Decline and Waiting List. The Admissions Office informs families of the outcome; age guidelines and placement rules apply, and decisions may place applicants on the Waiting List when a place is not immediately available. The policy includes an age-appropriate class numbering and placement framework to ensure suitable grade alignment and progression.
