Admissions

Admissions
1. Registration and initial submission: Registration typically starts in May, and seats are limited with registration closing when the quota for each class is met. Families should submit the completed school application and begin gathering the required documents early to maximize the chance of a successful intake. The Admissions Office advises prospective parents to plan ahead because class quotas can fill quickly.

2. Entrance examinations: Applicants must sit the Entrance Exams, which cover Arabic, English and Maths. A minimum average of 50% is required for admission consideration. The exams assess language and numerical skills, and performance in these areas directly influences eligibility. An interview accompanies the exam process to gauge readiness and fit for the program.

3. Interview and eligibility assessment: After the exams, an interview is conducted to confirm the student's readiness to join the school. Performance on the exam and interview collectively determine admission eligibility. The admissions process emphasizes both academic and social readiness for the school environment. Non-native Arabic speakers may be placed into special leveled groups to support language development as part of the consideration process.

4. Enrollment documents submission: The completed application form must be submitted with the required documents to the admissions office. The documents requested include: a birth certificate, vaccination card for KG1, KG2 and Grade 1; three passport-size photos; Family Book for Jordanians with National Number; resident permit for non-Jordanian students (annual submission); health certificate; Transfer certificate; and certified end-of-year marks from previous schools. If transferring from abroad, additional attestations from relevant authorities may be required. Registration also notes that the school complies with private/private education regulations and may require translations or certifications as part of the file.

5. Language support and final admission steps: Non-native speakers of Arabic join special leveled groups to improve language proficiency, as needed. Admission proceeds only after meeting the exam, interview and document requirements, with seats allocated within the class quotas. The process concludes with the Admissions Office confirming admission and moving to enrollment according to the established quotas. Families should monitor for any further steps communicated by the Admissions Office to finalize enrollment.

6. Fees note within admissions context: The above admissions steps are followed in the context of the school's tuition and fees schedule for the upcoming scholastic year, which includes registration, tuition by grade, transportation, and other fees.
