1. Inquiry and initial contact. Prospective families express interest by submitting an inquiry form, and the Admissions Team will reach out to provide program details and next steps. The school communicates that admissions operate on a rolling basis with no fixed application deadline, so space is allocated as applications are received; however, submitting early is strongly encouraged to improve the chance of placement.

3) Admissions assessment and admission decision. Applicants undergo assessments (including English and math-related evaluations) along with review of academic records and letters of recommendation; the Admissions Team and Principal determine eligibility and whether to offer admission. As part of the 2025-2026 offerings, the school introduced a Tuition Grant that reduces tuition by 50% for eligible students in Grades 1–10 for the 2025-2026 school year; this program is not available concurrently with other financial aid or scholarships. After a successful admission offer, a seat-hold deposit is required to confirm enrollment (details below). The 2025-2026 tuition and related costs are substantial and vary by program, with day and boarding options influencing total annual costs.

2) Application submission and documents. After the inquiry, families complete an application form and provide supporting documents as part of the admissions process. The school emphasizes a streamlined, document-driven review process, with rolling admissions continuing year-round as long as space remains. There is no formal waitlist published; admissions are handled on a space-available basis and on a rolling basis.
