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.
1. Submit Application
Complete the online application form and pay the non-refundable application fee. Parents must also provide recent school reports and basic identification documents. Additional paperwork may be requested for Learning Support or religious affiliation.
2. Pay the Application Fee
The application fee can be settled by bank transfer or credit card. Proof of payment must be shared with the school’s Finance Office to confirm processing.
3. Screening & Assessment
Once the application and payment are confirmed, the school arranges a screening. Younger children take part in a developmental observation with staff and parents, while older students may complete English or academic assessments. Learning Support applicants may also need an updated evaluation.
4. Review & Offer
The Admissions team reviews results and, if the child is accepted, issues an offer letter and enrollment package.
5. Finalize Enrollment
Parents confirm their child’s place by submitting the required forms and paying registration fees before the deadline.

Located just north of Bangkok in Nonthaburi, Ruamrudee International School’s Ratchapruek Campus (RISR) opened in August 2019 and serves students from Pre‑K 2 through Grade 11, with its first Grade 12 cohort launching in August 2025. Students follow a modified American curriculum aligned with AERO standards and, in upper grades, may choose between the IB Diploma Programme or the AP track. The school emphasizes inquiry-based STEM learning, service projects aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals, and creative expression through arts competitions and summer art classes. With English as the medium of instruction, and character development rooted in the “union of hearts” philosophy, RISR offers a nurturing and community-minded environment for international families seeking academic, creative, and service-oriented growth.
