Applications for Current Academic Year 2022-23
Rolling Applications Period
We adopt a rolling admissions process for grades with vacancies, generally accepting rolling applications and conducting admissions assessments from May 2022 to January 2023. As a general practice, Pre-School does not enroll new students after Mid-February.
Applications for Next Academic Year: 2023-24 Regular Applications Period
2023-24 applications for both grades will open on Thursday, September 1, 2022. The deadline for submitting applications is Friday, September 30, 2022 for Year One, and Tuesday, December 20, 2022 for Year Two.
Rolling Applications Period
Depending on the grade, Pre-School may have available spaces after concluding the Regular Application Process for 2023-24. Hence, from Tuesday, May 2, 2023, Pre-School may accept and review applications for 2023-24 on a rolling basis i.e. Rolling Admissions.
The table below serves as a guide to our admissions process and The ISF Pre-School reserves the right to modify these dates and periods if necessary.
