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.
Attend an Open House or Campus Tour Prospective parents are encouraged to visit the school to gain firsthand insight into the facilities and community.
Submit an Application After your initial inquiry and school visit, complete the online application form available on the school's website. Ensure all required documents, such as previous school records and identification papers, are included.
Assessment and Interview Once the application is reviewed, the Admissions Office will schedule an assessment for your child. This may include age-appropriate evaluations and an interview to understand your child's academic readiness and interests. The school does not release assessment results, and re-assessment is possible after 12 months upon approval by the Principal.
Offer and Enrollment If your child meets the admission criteria, you will receive an offer letter. To secure the place, acceptance of the offer and payment of the enrollment fee are required within the specified timeframe.
If students are deemed to be admissible, but places in the Grade are not available, the applicant will be placed on a waiting list. The waiting list rolls over each year so that the prioritisation of the applicants on the list is maintained. Waiting list positions are not disclosed to parents.
Order of priority is determined by a number of factors including, but not limited to:
-A sibling of a current student
-A child transferring from another North London Collegiate School
-A child of an alumnus of NLCS (Old North Londoner)
NLCS offers a Scholarship Programme aimed at attracting and nurturing outstanding students. The programme includes:
-Academic Scholarships for students applying to Grades 9 to 12. These scholarships are awarded to students who have demonstrated exceptional academic performance and potential in their current studies.
-Art, Music, and Sport Scholarships for students who excel in these areas. These scholarships are available for students who show talent and dedication to their respective disciplines.
How the Scholarships Work
-Scholarships typically cover a reduction in tuition fees, but the exact percentage may vary depending on the scholarship type and the student's circumstances.
-The selection process involves an application form, an interview, and a review of the student’s academic and extracurricular achievements.
North London Collegiate School Singapore caters to students ages 3 to 18, offering the British curriculum during Primary School, followed by the IB Middle Years Programme and IB Diploma Programme. The campus features a purpose-built performing arts centre complete with professional backstage facilities, modern and extensive sports facilities, and large libraries. A standout program at the school is its commitment to the arts, with numerous music ensembles and drama productions taking place throughout the year. Another key feature of the school is the Academic Lectures series, during which members of the community will give academic lectures on a topic related to their subject. Students also benefit from opportunities to participate in competitions and international exchanges, with other NLCS schools internationally.
