Let the school know you're thinking of applying — they can share their prerequisites and help you through the process.
It's best to ask — circumstances can change at any time.
ASP accepts applications for students aged 3 to 18 and uses a rolling admissions model for the current academic year (space permitting), with applications for the following academic year opening in October. Applications are completed online through the admissions portal; required documents include the student's school reports from the previous two years and the current year, a student questionnaire, confidential teacher and counselor forms, a parent questionnaire, and a copy of the passport; the application fee is €1,450 and is non-refundable if an offer is made, but refundable if no space is offered. An English-language assessment may be required for Grade 6–12 applicants to determine the appropriate level of English-language support, and non-native speakers are assessed through the English as an Additional Language (EAL) pathway. The Admissions Committee reviews complete files and communicates decisions within 10–15 working days after receipt of the complete file; October marks the start of accepting applications for the following year, and rolling admissions may apply for the current year if space permits. The school provides relocation support for families relocating to Paris, including grade-level placement and EAL/learning-support considerations.
Waitpool: When a grade level is full, a waiting pool is developed only as a last resort; parents are advised when a place may become available or if an additional class will be formed. Waitpool placements are communicated to families as placement opportunities arise.
Financial assistance is available for current ASP families who require temporary tuition and fee support; ASP does not offer need-based or merit scholarships to applicants.
American School of Paris is an independent international school outside Paris that serves students aged 3 to 18 with an American-based, standards-driven curriculum. Upper grades offer a choice of Advanced Placement (AP) courses or the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Program, while all students earn an American high school diploma. The program is guided by Understanding by Design, with English as the primary language of instruction and mandatory French at varying levels. MAP testing supports student progress in Grades 3–8. The campus spans more than 12 acres and houses K3–12 in dedicated indoor and outdoor spaces just outside Paris. Facilities include Arts Link studios, Black Box Theater, a 350-seat Performing Arts Center, and Design and STEM Labs with 3D printers and robotics. Beyond academics, ASP offers broad after-school activities—from robotics and sports to Amnesty International and Model UN—alongside a strong music, arts, and service culture, all within a secure, gated environment.
