  • Children of alumni or school staff.
  • Re-enrollment of alumni due to parental job relocation.
  • Transfers between ISP schools.

Our admissions policy considers certain priority criteria for the use of vacancies, giving preference to applicants with siblings at the school, children of alumni or staff members, alumni returning due to a job transfer of their parents, and students transferring from other ISP schools.

In addition, the selection process includes an academic evaluation. For Primary, Middle, and Senior School, a minimum passing score of 60% is required on each of the tests. In the case of Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten, if the student takes the test in the first semester, a 75% achievement score is required, while in the second semester, a 90% pass rate is required to be admitted.

 We have a special process for foreign and non-Spanish-speaking students.
