What happens next

Once we are in receipt of your application, you will receive an email confirming receipt of all documentation or any
information that may be missing. 

For students applying to start September 3, 2012, a limited number of available spaces will be offered in early March 2012, with the bulk of the offers made from mid May 2012. However, we continue to offer places as they become available right up to the start of the school year. Students applying during the school year are admitted on a rolling basis as space is available.

For all accepted students, placement will be guaranteed upon full receipt of full payment of the tuition fee.  If no payment is received by the due date and there is a waiting list for your child's class then placement of your child/ren will be released to waitlisted students.  For more information see Fee Schedule and Refund Policy.
