Admissions

Admissions
1. Apply online. Applications are accepted any time throughout the year with no deadlines, and the school will be in touch for next steps. An onboarding interview with the parents is part of the process, and the student will sit for an evaluation test. The admissions process covers Nursery through Grade 12, including IB-PYP, Lebanese and American middle/high schools, and the IB-DP, with sections in English/French where applicable.

2. Submit documentation and pay the processing fee. Submit the completed application form along with bus, medical, and photo release forms; forms can be collected after the onboarding interview or sent by email. An evaluation test is required for Grades 1–12, and EY candidates will have an interview in both English and French. A non-refundable application processing and testing fee of $100 per family is payable. For candidates joining from outside Lebanon, transcripts must be certified by the Lebanese Embassy or Consulate.

3. Eligibility and assessments. Eligibility for the Early Years Programme is age-based (Nursery, KG1, KG2 with Sept. 30 cutoffs). For Grades 1–12, placement follows a thorough review of end-of-year reports, a school certificate stamping (local cases), and an internal evaluation test, with ESL placement based on a placement assessment if needed.

4. Neurodivergent and special considerations. For neurodivergent candidates, entrance is evaluated case-by-case, all assessments must be presented, and students spend 2 full trial days for observation before acceptance.

5. Special Rights Eligibility. If information about a child's developmental, medical, or learning needs has not been disclosed and is later discovered, the school reserves the right to refuse acceptance or withdraw the student, and no tuition refunds are provided.

Scholarships
Financial aid is available to bridge the gap for families who demonstrate need, and decisions are made by a financial aid committee after reviewing an applied form from the accounting department. Applicants can benefit from financial aid up to 50%. Merit-based scholarships are awarded for exceptional academic achievement or athletic talent, and the scholarship can be renewed in subsequent years if eligibility criteria are maintained.
