ICS Paris seeks well-rounded, internationally-minded students who can positively contribute to the school community. For younger students, being potty-trained is necessary to enter all classes from Nursery. Students entering Grades 9 and 10 must demonstrate a B1 level in English. Students entering Grades 11 and 12 must demonstrate a B2 level in English.

Before starting the online application form, you should have the following documents ready: a student photo, student passport/ID, official grades or report cards from the last three school years (as many as applicable for younger children who have not been in school for three years yet), English test results for Grade 9 and above, and any relevant language certificates.

No, we do not have entrance exams at ICS Paris. However, placement tests will be required for secondary school applicants to place them in the appropriate levels in English, French, and Maths. These tests are generally taken on or just prior to the first day of school. Primary school admissions usually do not require exams.

There is no English requirement for students entering Nursery to Grade 8. Students entering Grades 9 and 10 must have a B1 (intermediate) level of English and students entering Grades 11 and 12 must have a B2 (upper intermediate) level of English to access the curriculum successfully.

ICS Paris operates on a rolling admissions basis, meaning applications are reviewed as they come in. Applying early is advised to secure a place. We recommend beginning the application process in November for the following September, or at least two months before joining during the school year. Please note that the Diploma Programme is a two-year programme, and Grade 11 students are required to join classes before the end of September.

Yes, mid-year admissions are possible, depending on availability in each grade. New students typically start on Wednesdays, and the admissions office will guide you through the process.

Yes, ICS Paris accepts students throughout the year (up to Grade 10), based on available space. Tuition fees are prorated based on the month of arrival, but new student fees (such as the application fee, registration fee, deposit, and school development fund) are due in full regardless of the start date. If a student leaves mid-year, families must notify the administration in writing with a registered letter at least 90 days before the departure date. Tuition fees will be due in full for any term that has already begun.

No, ICS Paris is a day school and does not offer boarding facilities or assist with finding host families. Families must arrange their own accommodations if needed.

Once a complete application is submitted, it is reviewed by the admissions committee, which includes the admissions manager, the principal, and the head of school. The admissions committee may request additional documents or an interview at that time. Families typically receive a response within three weeks of submitting all required documents.

Once accepted, the ICS Paris Admissions Team will notify families via email. Afterwards, you will receive a DocuSign link to complete the enrollment process, and additional details such as school rules and supply lists will be communicated in the summer for those starting in September.

New families starting in September are invited to an orientation day in August, prior to the first day of school. Orientation includes information about the school day, uniforms, important school policies, and our digital communication systems. For mid-year admissions, individual welcomes are arranged, and all necessary information is communicated before the start date.

No, ICS Paris does not handle residency or visa paperwork. The school can provide an enrollment certificate showing that a student is registered, but families are responsible for managing all residency or visa-related requirements.

Before submitting any online application, we urge all families to contact us with their questions about the school. The admissions managers are available by phone or email, or we can schedule a campus visit. We also organise online information sessions. This will allow you to learn more about our international school ICS Paris school, and allows us to get to know each family individually.
