1. Schedule a visit to ISC-Amman. The school strongly recommends booking an appointment to visit the campus, meet with staff, and see the school in action. This helps families understand the environment and ask questions about programs and admission criteria.
2. Application and required documents. There is no application deadline; admissions are accepted on a space-available basis throughout the school year. To start the process, submit the completed Application Form along with documents including three passport photos, a certified copy of the birth certificate, previous school reports, a Medical Clearance Form with vaccination records, a copy of the family book (Jordanians only), copies of the student's passport and parents' residency permits, and copies of the parents' passports. For Grades 4–12, a Certificate of Good Conduct is also required. A joining fee is charged to initiate the admission process. Appointments for diagnostic testing are arranged after registration and initial payment are submitted.
3. Testing/diagnostic assessment. Provided that the application and initial payment are made, students applying for admission sit for an evaluation by ISC staff. Grades 1 and above sit for a diagnostic test as part of the admission process, and the results are used to determine placement. Appointments for diagnostic testing are arranged by the admission officer once the registration is complete.
4. Admission decision. Admission decisions are made after careful evaluation of the candidates, with results of diagnostic testing and previous school records considered on a case-by-case basis. Additional criteria include motivation, social and emotional development, willingness to work hard, and the school's ability to accommodate the candidate's needs. A final admission decision cannot be made without the requested documents. Once accepted and the required fees are paid, a place for the student is reserved.
5. Enrollment and seat reservation. Upon acceptance and payment of the required fees, a place for the student is reserved. This step completes the admissions process and secures the student's enrollment for the upcoming term.
