Admissions timelines

Applications for August entry (Grades K1–11 day, Grades 8–11 boarding) must be submitted in time for either the first or second application deadline, as per the timeline chart below. 

• Offers for August entry are made in our first or second offer rounds based on which application deadline was met, provided the review process can be completed within that time frame.*
• Applications that do not result in an offer in the first or second offer round continue to be considered for an offer in the next available offer round, or for the possibility of a January offer.
• Applications submitted after the second application deadline will only be considered for late offers.
• A small number of offers may be made before or between offer rounds at our discretion.

* Review, assessment, and offer timeline

• The initial review of an application and/or any assessments as part of the review process may require a further review of updated school reports or other information, which may result in the application being considered for a later offer round.
• Students with support needs (including but not limited to EAL, learning support, social-emotional learning support) may be considered in our second rather than our first round offers, as we have more accurate information about support capacity for each grade level by then.
• Offers to Singapore Citizen applicants are typically made only in our second round offers, due to the timing of the MOE-waiver application process.
• Some applications that met the application deadline for a particular offer round may therefore not be considered until a later offer round.

Applications for January entry (Grades K1–10 day only) may be submitted at any time while January applications are open, usually until July or early August prior to the January entry point.  

• Offers for January entry are typically made in October.
• January space availability is entirely dependent on leaver spaces becoming available between August and December.  
• Subject options, including language options, are likely to be limited for January entry if some courses are fully subscribed.
