1. School Tour: ISA invites prospective families to visit the campus. An in-person visit is available, and a virtual tour can be arranged if an on-site visit is not possible. During the tour, families learn about the international curriculum, the IB Diploma Programme, and the expectations ISA holds for its students. The tour helps families understand if ISA is the right fit for their child.

Feedback from ISA teachers is provided after the assessment day, and a decision is typically made within two weeks.
4. Enrollment: If accepted, the school application must be signed. Once signed, an acceptance letter confirming enrollment at ISA will be issued.
