Admissions

Admissions
IST is an independent, non-denominational, co-educational day school. Priority for admissions is given to international, English-speaking candidates, then to international candidates who do not speak English, and to enrolled students' siblings. Class size is limited, and a waiting list is created once all places in a given class are filled. To enter Nursery, students must be three years old during the calendar year of entry and toilet trained. To enter Pre-Kindergarten, Kindergarten, and First Grade, students must be four, five, and six years old, respectively, by December 31 of the entry year. IST reserves the right to determine appropriate grade level placements. After First Grade, students are placed according to their previous schooling, official transfer documents, birth date, and English language skills; placement examinations in English and mathematics may be used for Grades 6-12. Students may enter the school with no English-speaking skills at Nursery, Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten and will be enrolled in the English Language Center (ELC) program; families pay an additional fee for this program for as long as the school deems it necessary, and the school will make the final ELC placement. In extenuating circumstances, IST may admit students with incomplete admission documents; if, after an initial six-week period, the school does not receive the necessary documents, it reserves the right to exclude the student(s). The Italian Parità Scolastica status in Early Childhood and Elementary School allows IST to offer the Italian national curriculum in Elementary School; in Middle School all students are offered Italian as the first foreign language. High School students are expected to meet the requirements for the IST American High School Diploma, and the school offers the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme. Candidates for admission to this Programme should discuss a possible course of study with the IB Coordinator before submitting the Registration Request.
