ABQ Sohar International School

1. Initiate contact and arrange a campus visit. Begin by reaching ABQ Sohar International School admissions via WhatsApp or by calling 72221960 to start the registration process; the admissions team is available to assist and can help you with next steps. You may also book a campus tour through the Book A Tour option to see facilities and meet staff. This initial contact sets up the pathway to confirm eligibility and begin the enrolment process.

2. Check eligibility and class placement using the 2026/27 age guidelines. There is a defined age chart forPre-KG through Grade 12 for the 2026/27 academic year, with birth-year windows determining appropriate classes. Review the chart to verify which grade your child would enter based on their birth year and the academic session. This step helps ensure your child is placed in the correct program from Pre-KG to Grade 12.

3. Prepare and submit required documents. The enrolment form must be accompanied by documentation required by the Ministry of Education, including a utility bill as proof of address, signing on the registration terms, a School Fee Confirmation Form, copies of the student's and parents' passports, valid visa pages, birth certificate, health form, and two passport-sized photographs. Additional items such as the Health Card and, for non-Omani students, resident cards may also be requested. Gather these materials in advance to avoid delays in processing.

4. Complete enrolment formalities and provide fee documentation. Submit the enrolment form together with the required documents and the School Fee Confirmation Form. Be prepared for the possibility of international examination fees (IGCSE/AS-A2/GED) being charged separately where applicable. The admissions team will guide you through the documents workflow and confirm next steps once submitted.

5. Review fee options and finalize payment. ABQ Sohar offers multiple payment methods for tuition and fees, including full payment at once, two 50% instalments by post-dated cheques, or eight monthly post-dated cheques according to a scheduled plan (dates and percentages are specified, e.g., 20% by August 5, then 15% by September 5, etc.). The School Uniform cost is not included in the tuition, and online payments, debit, and credit card payments are accepted. Clarify any learning-support fees that may apply beyond standard tuition.

6. Admission decision and enrollment confirmation. The admissions team commits to guiding families through the process and aims for a smooth enrolment experience. After completing the necessary steps and receiving a decision, the school will notify families of the outcome and proceed with enrollment formalities. This step culminates in official enrollment and registration for the upcoming academic year.

ABQ Sohar International School does not publish a waitlist or pool system in its admissions information. The admissions process and contact options are described, but there is no published documentation of a waitlist mechanism or pool. If space becomes available, families typically follow the standard admissions steps outlined above, guided by the admissions team.
