Admissions

Admissions

1. Admissions season and initial priority. The admissions season begins annually in April. IPA provides priority registration for current IPA students until the end of June. After June, new applicants from outside IPA and returning IPA students have equal priority, and admission is determined on a first-come, first-served basis. The annual registration bulletin is part of the registration contract for the upcoming school year.

2. New student admissions by grade. For Kindergarten, admission requires a personal interview conducted by the kindergarten administration. For students in Grades 1 through 3, admission requires a personal interview with the school administration. For Grades 4 through 10, admission requires a written test in Arabic, English, and Mathematics, followed by a personal interview with the school administration. For Grades 11–12, there are two tracks: the National Program requires a written test in core subjects and a personal interview; the International Program uses external exam results plus an interview.

3. Enrollment contract and initial steps after admission. After acceptance, the registration contract covers one academic year and is not automatically renewed; parents must review the contract with the admissions office, sign it, and pay the applicable fees to enroll the student for the next year. The contract and the terms are tied to the annual registration bulletin, which is considered part of the contract.

4. Renewal of existing students and ongoing requirements. For renewing existing students, payments must be made according to the official fee schedule and the parent must sign the registration contract for the new academic year after reviewing it. The renewal process is described as part of the contract renewal requirements.
