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.
Step 1: Prepare the required documents. The student's file must include the following papers: a birth certificate (Jordanian births must be certified by the Jordanian Civil Registration Department), a vaccination card for KG1, KG2, and Grade 1, copies of the important passport pages, and a Family Book with the national number if the father is Jordanian. Include a copy of a one-year resident permit if the student is non-Jordanian. Add end-of-year marks and a transfer certificate from the previous school, and for non-Jordanian Grade 1, an original birth certificate or a certified copy from the student's embassy in Amman. Include other pertinent reports or recommendations from the previous schools. The transfer certificate and end-of-year marks should be certified by the Directorate of Private Education located in Jabal Al Hussain.
Step 2: Country-specific certification requirements. For transfers from the USA, sealed original certificates must be certified by AMIDEAST, then by the Jordanian Ministry of Education (Examination Department in Abdali), and finally by the Directorate of Private Education. For transfers from the United Kingdom, original certificates must be certified by the British Council, then by the Jordanian Ministry of Education (Examination Department in Abdali), and then by the Directorate of Private Education. For transfers from another foreign country, papers should be certified by the embassy of the student's country in Jordan, the Jordanian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Jordanian Ministry of Education (Examination Department, Abdali), and the Directorate of Private Education.
Step 3: Submit the documents and have them reviewed. The listed documents form the student's file for the AHSS admissions process, and the Directorate of Private Education certification referenced in Step 2 is required for transfer certificates and end-of-year marks. The admissions team will review the file for completeness and compliance with the authorities, and may request any missing items before moving forward. Prepare to address any additional requests promptly to avoid delays in processing.
Step 4: Next steps after submission. The site does not publish further details about testing, interviews, or timelines beyond the document requirements and certification steps. For specifics about the subsequent steps after the documents are in order, contact AHSS admissions to confirm what happens next in your case.
