Admissions

Admissions

1. Admission is inclusive and open to students of all nationalities, subject to seat availability. New applicants are required to undergo entrance examinations in both English and Math. The school also considers the applicant's previous school reports and behavior records when evaluating their application. The administration retains the discretion to accept or decline the applicant based on academic performance and behavior.

2. Seat Reservation for the Next Academic Year: At the end of February every year, the school forwards Seat Reservation Forms to the parents. If the intention is to keep the child enrolled for the following academic year, the parent should respond to the letter and settle the non-refundable seat reservation fee. This fee is deducted from the first-semester tuition and guarantees the child's seat reservation.

3. Withdrawal from HAS: The guardian submits a transfer request to the Students' Affairs Department with the acceptance letter from the new school. In case of leaving the country, a cancellation request must be signed by the parent. The parent should settle all unpaid balance to proceed and receive any requested documents from the school administration.
