1. School Tour. Families are encouraged to visit the school for a tour of the campus and talk with admissions staff. 2. Application and Required Documents. There is no application deadline, but the admission process should be initiated early on. Applications are accepted on a space-available basis throughout the school year. A joining fee is required to initiate the admission process and cover administrative costs. The required documents are: Completed Application Form; Copy of Identity Card or Passport; Two Passport Photographs; Final School Report from Previous School. 3. Testing. Students applying to enter Grades 2 and above sit for diagnostic tests as part of the admission process. Upon completion, the diagnostic tests are marked and a decision upon placement is made by the school. 4. Admission Decisions. Admission decisions are made after careful evaluation of the candidates. Results of diagnostic testing and previous school records are considered on a case-by-case basis. Additional criteria for admission include motivation, social and emotional development, willingness to work hard, and the ability of ISC-Choueifat to accommodate the needs of the candidate. Once accepted and the required fees paid, a place for the student is reserved.
