Required documents include a recent photo, birth certificate, passport or Hong Kong ID, visa (if applicable), and the most recent two years of school report cards. A non-refundable application fee must be paid at this stage.

Admissions decisions are communicated to families via email. If the application is successful, families receive an offer letter outlining the conditions of enrollment. Where no space is available, applicants may be placed on a rolling waitlist.
