How to Apply

Requirements

We endeavour to ensure applicants have all necessary information regarding registration conditions and procedures.

Compliance with admission requirements in a timely fashion will help secure a place at our Academy. Those who submit their application after the deadline cannot be assured admittance. In the case of two simultaneous admission requests, preference will be given based on academic grades.

Important Note: Application does not imply the admission of the candidates. In fact, any application may be accepted or rejected by the Academy. We urge you to take this into account so that the students are not left without the corresponding registration in their current school. Parents should avoid clothing and equipment expenses, as well as airline tickets purchase, until the official Academy acceptance is received.

School Credit

Although it is important that all candidates maintain a positive attitude during their school courses, it is indispensable that all courses taken in previous school periods be accredited. Students will not be allowed to repeat passed or failed school courses.

Le Châtelard’s reputation for academic excellence requires that all candidates maintain an average grade of 80% to be considered for admittance.

In all cases, the Board of Admissions has the final decision upon a candidate’s acceptance and his/her temporary or definitive rejection.

Psychology, Health and Ethics

Programs, activities and schedules are designed to achieve harmonious development among students. For this reason candidates are required to be in good physical and mental health. Poor health may limit admission chances.

Family Support

Parents of children admitted are asked to support the school’s moral formation by encouraging their child to comply with the standards and regulations of each academy. They are further asked to supply and complete accurate records for each candidate. Falsification of documentation will be grounds for their registration to be rejected and cancelled.

Acceptance

The academy will send written acknowledgement by fax, e-mail or ordinary mail once the candidate has met the full requirements for admission. Incomplete admission applications will not be considered. Payment of the admission application fee and the full or partial advance payment for the selected courses does not guarantee a candidate´s acceptance.

After a candidate’s full documentation has been received, parents will receive the Acceptance Terms and Conditions.  They must sign and return it to acknowledge that they have read and understood all information. Once returned, the admission application enters the review process, at which time the candidate is considered for admittance.
