FAQs

The admissions process to Lower Prep at BIS begins when the child is three years old, approximately twelve months before the child is admitted to the school (at approximately age four). Please always check the website for the actual eligibility criteria.

Parents are made aware of the admission before the end of the same year.

The first step towards the admission process is the online registration form available on our website in July-August. Parents have to fill this form and submit it online, followed by the payment of registration fees. This is followed by form filling, where both the parents are required to be present at a given date where they come in to the school premises to fill up the form. For the IBDP applications are invited usually in the months of August and September. This form can be downloaded from our website. The form needs to be filled by the student and submitted along with the requisite documents and the registration fee at the IBDP office. Students need to appear for an entrance test. Shortlisted students are then called for a personal interaction with members of the Admissions Panel.

At the Lower Prep stage, there is NO testing of students. Applying for Chance Vacancies, students would be assessed in English and Math. For IBDP too, the assessment is for English and Math. We have students who come from different curriculum – national and international. No special preparation is required for this test as it helps give the school an idea about the aptitude of the student.

Chance vacancies IF ANY are put up on our website in February-March. For chance vacancies, parents fill in a form, and the child is also given a written test to assess their level for the class applied.
