Prospective students need to submit an online application form and all required forms. A non-refundable Application Fee must be paid in order to be considered for admissions.
STEP 2
Once the required forms and documents are complete have been submitted and the Application Fee has been received, the Admissions Team and the appropriate school administration will review the application file. A time will be scheduled to meet your child to conduct an assessment. All assessments are conducted on a 1-to-1 basis with an experienced and trained assessor. Our assessment activities are all age-appropriate. Please note that there is no preparation required for the assessment.
For overseas applicants: If a face-to-face assessment is not possible, an online assessment via Skype may be arranged. Overseas applications will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
STEP 3
The application will be reviewed by Stamford's Review Committee. Families will then be notified by email of the outcome within 2 weeks of the assessment. When a place is offered, the Deposit must be paid within seven (7) calendar days of receipt of the acceptance letter. If the Deposit is not received within seven (7) calendar days, priority will be given to other applicants.
