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. Parents begin by registering for admission via the school’s admission form and providing basic family and student information. This includes campus and grade level of interest. After registration, families are asked to complete payment of the registration fee and entrance assessment fee.
2. Students then take part in an entrance assessment according to a schedule set by the school. For Grade 1 applicants, this includes experiences focusing on soft skills, logical thinking, and English language. For Grades 2–12, the assessment includes academic checks in Vietnamese Literature, English, and Mathematics which are delivered through interviews and written tests.
3. The school provides assessment results within a maximum of 10 working days after the student has completed the entrance evaluation. This allows families to understand the child’s learning profile and the school’s placement decision within a clear timeframe. Results form the basis for moving forward with the enrolment and class placement process.
4. If the student is accepted, parents proceed to complete the enrolment file as required by the school. At this stage, families also need to finalise financial procedures, which includes paying the required fees according to the school’s guidance. Only when both documents and financial obligations are completed is enrolment considered confirmed.
5. After all steps above are completed, the student officially begins school and starts attending classes according to the school calendar. The school then carries out its normal processes for class placement and ongoing academic and pastoral support.
The school does not publicly disclose information on any existing waitlist system.
The school states that it organises an annual talent scholarship competition to identify young talents. Through this competition, students can receive scholarships covering from 50% up to 100% of tuition fees. In addition, The Dewey Schools has reward policies for currently enrolled students who achieve strong results in academics, sports, arts and community activities. This acts as a way to encourage them to continue developing their abilities. .
