Admissions

Admissions
1. Online Application and Document Submission
Parents begin the process by completing the school's online application form for their child. During this initial step, you must upload all necessary supporting documents, including your child's past school reports and reference materials from previous teachers or carers. Ensuring all paperwork is accurate and complete will help the admissions team process the application efficiently.

2. Application Fee Payment
Once the online form and documents are submitted, parents are required to pay a one-time, non-refundable application fee. This payment is necessary to officially register your application and move it forward into the review stage. The admissions team will only proceed with the next steps of the enrollment process after this fee has been cleared.

3. Interviews and Assessments
Following a successful application review, the school will typically invite parents for a discussion and conduct an informal interview with the student. Depending on the specific grade level your child is applying for, formal assessment tests may also be administered. This step helps the educators understand your child's learning profile and ensures they will be properly supported in their new classroom environment.

4. Offer and Enrollment
If the application is successful and a seat is available, the school will issue an official offer of placement that parents must formally accept. After your acceptance, you will receive login details for the parent portal, where you will need to generate and sign the student e-contract. Finally, parents must arrange the payment of the initial tuition fees to secure and confirm their child's enrollment.

Scholarships
OWIS provides several scholarship opportunities available to primary and secondary students, which can cover between 6% and 60% of annual tuition fees for a duration of one to two years. The available categories include the Innovation Award for community-focused initiatives, the Active Award for sports achievements, and the Creativity Award for students excelling in visual and performing arts.

Waitlist
One World International School operates a waiting list system that is primarily driven by its nationality cap policy. To maintain a balanced and diverse student community, the school limits every nationality to a maximum of 30% of the total student body. If your child's nationality has already reached this cap at the time of your application, or if a specific grade level is at full capacity, your child will be placed on a waitlist. Because admissions are processed on a first-come, first-served basis, families are encouraged to apply as early as possible to secure a spot before caps or classroom limits are reached.
