Admitted Status

Once the student has been accepted into SNA, payment of school fees and completion of the Application for Admission form are required.

Pending Status

When seats are limited, students may be placed on a waiting list. Please note that a place on the waiting list does not guarantee enrollment. Length of time on the waiting list will vary depending on the number of places available.

Rejected Status

If the student has not met the necessary admissions requirements. This decision will be provided to the parent by the admissions officer. If in the future, the parent believes that the student can meet the necessary requirements to be a successful IB programme student at SNA an additional application can be filed and considered by the school pedagogical team.

Inclusion and Access

As stated clearly in our educational philosophy, we strive to empower our students with the skills, values, and knowledge that enable them to believe in their capacity to lead, walk their own path, and know how it feels to learn, discover, and experience.

To serve that purpose, we are committed to ensuring that at SNA we provide that opportunity for all those who join our community whose needs we can accommodate. Our current status in terms of supporting students with special needs is in a developing stage. It is important that students with special learning needs in our school will make progress and grow in confidence in their own abilities, therefore students must be able to access our MYP subjects and DP courses under the accommodations allowed by the International Baccalaureate.
