It's best to ask — circumstances can change at any time.
Step 1: Basic Education ICFL admissions. To begin, the parent or guardian fills out the Enrolment Form online by clicking Enroll Now on the school site, or the form may be filled manually at the campus and submitted to the Admission Officer in person. The next step is for the parent to complete and submit the Parents Interview Form (PIF); the Admission Officer will decide whether to schedule a Parents and Student interview in person or via Skype. The applicant must submit a set of documents: Academic Progress Record or Report Card (in English or Filipino, or translated and notarized if needed); Birth Certificate; two 2x2 colored photos and two 1x1 photos; a recommendation form or certificate of good moral character; a photocopy of the passport for international students; and, for international/foreign students under 18, a Special Study Permit (SSP) with the school assisting in the process. After review, the admission officer informs the student/guardian of acceptance (or denial) by oral, written, or email notice; the student then proceeds to diagnostic testing, for which a testing fee of Php 400 is charged; finally, the student or guardian pays the school fees to the cashier or via bank transfer, with multiple payment options (full or installments of 3, 6, or 9 months). See the Basic Education ICFL admission steps, acceptance process, diagnostic testing, and fee payment details.
There is no published waitlist or pooling process for HCSI admissions. The site notes that enrollment is ongoing for all educational programs (SY 2025-2026) and does not describe any waiting list or pool system. Prospective families are advised to apply promptly to secure a seat given ongoing enrollment.
HCSI does not publish scholarship information on its admissions or fees materials. No dedicated scholarships page or program is described in the available admissions resources; families are directed to follow standard enrollment and fee payment procedures, and may contact the Admissions Office for any questions about financial aid options.
