Step 1. Application

Complete the Admissions Form.
It is downloadable in 
HARD COPY or you can complete the ONLINE application.

Submit the Admissions Form along with the required documents (listed below) to the Admissions Office.

 

Required Admissions Documentation:

  • Completed Admissions Form
  • Copy of Birth Certificate, Passport, or NRC
  • 2 recent passport-size photos
  • Copy of report card from the previous school
  • Copy of Immunization Record
  • Copy of Household Member List

 

Step 2. Assessment and Observation

All applicants are required to participate in the interview and screening process.

The application fee of 50 USD must be paid before an assessment can take place.

 

Early Childhood – G1:
Applicants for early childhood must attend a developmental screening and observation guided by the classroom teacher.

 

G2-12:
Applicants in grades 2-12 must complete an academic screening of their English, both written and comprehension, and mathematical proficiency. If necessary, applicants may be asked to sit for the second round of testing to determine their EAL level.

 

Step 3: Application Review

Each application is reviewed by the appropriate divisional representatives. All decisions are based on a careful review of the applicant’s school records, screen scores, English language proficiency and the school’s ability to meet the students’ needs within our existing program.

 

Step 4: Decisions

There are 3 possible decision outcomes.

  1. Acceptance:
    If an applicant is qualified and there is space available, a formal letter of acceptance is issued. Parents must sign the letter and turn in a completed health form before the student may enroll. All tuition payments must be cleared before the first day of classes. Middle school and high school students will meet with the director prior to starting classes.
  2. Waitlist
    Qualified applicants are placed in the waitlist if there is no space available in the selected grade level.
  3. Denial
    Applicants can be denied admissions on the basis of their academic/and or behavioral record, because their English language proficiency does not meet grade-level requirements, or when Thalun lacks the program resources to meet their educational needs.

 

Step 5: Confirm Enrollment

Students who have been accepted will need to submit all outstanding documentation and complete the payment before their first day of school.
