Admissions Notice

updated September 3, 2025

Admissions for the 2025-2026 academic year are now closed for all applicants. Admissions for the 2026-2027 academic year will open on Monday, 22nd of September 2025.

How do I apply?

Each year, more than 350 new students join our Paris campus. The main entry points are:

→ Pre-K 
→ Kindergarten
→ 1st Grade
→ 6th Grade (Sixième)
→ 10th Grade (Seconde)

However, places usually become available in other grades each year depending on student departures. 

⚠️ Please note
These entry points do not apply to our Adaptation Program, which is specifically designed to welcome students with little to no French language skills entering 2nd through 9th Grade.

🎓 BFI & IB: Two-Year Programs
Both the French International Baccalaureate (BFI) and the International Baccalaureate (IB) are two-year programs covering 11th and 12th Grade.
To ensure academic continuity and coherence, students must complete both years at the same school. We are therefore unable to accept new students directly into the final year (12th Grade / Terminale).

📅 Admissions Calendar
Applications open every year in September for entry the following academic year.
Procedures vary depending on the student’s age and grade level.
