Admissions & Fees

Admissions Procedure

Castelli International School has a rolling admissions policy which means that applications will be accepted throughout the school year and summer. However, as space is limited, we encourage applicants to apply no later than January preceding the academic year of entrance.

We select our students based on how well they relate to the school environment, not only academically and socially, but also as participants in problem-solving activities, critical analysis, evidence gathering and clear communication, which is an integral part of our experiential approach to learning.

Where a visit to the school is possible, students applying for Grades 1, 2 and 3 have an informal interview. Students from 4th grade on, take a written test along with the interview. If that is not possible the student must fill out the application forms on the website and return to the school.

The application procedure is complete once the School has received:

  • application form;
  • a teacher recommendation form;
  • a copy of the two most recent report cards.
