Application Procedure

Please refer to the KIPS Admission Handbook for more detailed information on the admissions process.

Application process
Applications proceed through various stages as shown below as part of the admissions process. The main intake period is August at the beginning of the school year; however, applications are accepted year round based on availability.

Stage 1
Read Admissions Handbook		  

This document outlines admissions policies and procedures. All applicants must read it thoroughly before applying.
     

Stage 2
Confirm availability

  

Before submitting an application, please contact the KIST Admissions Office to confirm availability (only necessary when applying at times other than the main intake period – no confirmation required for the admissions testing period in January).
     

Stage 3
Submit application form

  

Fill out and submit the Application for Admission through the online system linked on the school website.
     

Stage 4

Parent interview (all applicants P0-P2)

Parent/child observation 　(P2 only)

  

Applicants will be informed of the date of their interview/observation.

  • For P0-P1: Only a parent interview will be conducted.
  • For P2: Following the parent interview, only those who pass the interview will be invited to return for the parent/child observation at a later date. Observations are conducted in groups with parents and children together.
     
Stage 5
Notification of final result		  

We aim to send out final results by e-mail approximately one week after the interview and observation.
     
Stage 6

Successful applicants are required to pay the non-refundable Day Care fees to secure their place in the class.
