Step 1 — Application: To begin, you may schedule a visit to the school, participate in an e-meet, contact the admissions team by phone, or fill out an online inquiry form. This initial contact helps families gather details about MIIS programs, campus options, and the admissions timeline. You should expect to receive guidance from the admissions team on the appropriate program level for your child and any immediate documentation or next steps. If you are planning to apply for SY 2026-2027, you can initiate this process now via the inquiry options provided by MIIS.
Step 2 — Assessment: Your child will be scheduled for assessment to have a better understanding of their strengths and weaknesses. The assessment is used to inform placement decisions and identify areas where additional support or enrichment may be appropriate. Families should prepare to participate in the assessment process and to discuss their child's learning history with the school. The assessment is a prerequisite before moving to the admission interview.
Step 3 — Admission: A student and parent interview will be conducted as part of the application process. The interview helps MIIS staff learn more about the applicant's learning style, goals, and fit with the school's program. Once admitted, please pay the reservation fee to secure your slot. The reservation fee is required to finalize enrollment, and the school will inform you about the timing of the enrollment window.
Step 4 — Enrollment: Parents will be informed of the enrollment period beforehand. During enrollment, families can purchase the necessary school materials. Please attend the Parent Orientation Seminar at the beginning of the school year, which is part of integrating into MIIS's community and routines.
