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.
1. Application Submission
Families begin by completing an online application form through the YCIS admissions portal. Required documents such as birth certificate, passport, school reports, and recent photographs are uploaded at this stage.
2. Application Review
The admissions team reviews all submitted materials to ensure completeness and eligibility. Only fully completed applications are processed for the next step.
3. Assessment and Interview
Depending on the child’s year group, YCIS arranges age-appropriate assessments and/or interviews. These may include written English and mathematics evaluations, group interaction tasks, or one-to-one meetings. The goal is to understand the child’s academic level, language ability, and social development.
4. Placement Consideration
After assessments, placement decisions are made based on multiple factors: academic background, English proficiency, social development, past schooling, and the child’s date of birth. The aim is to find the most suitable year level and environment for the student.
5. Offer of Place
If successful, families receive a formal offer letter. The place is confirmed once parents accept the offer and settle the required fees (including debenture or capital levy, where applicable).
YCIS operates a waiting pool / waiting list system. When a year level is full, approved applicants who passed interviews may be kept in the waiting pool until a spot opens.
