Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Do you give school tours?
Yes, we offer personalized school tours tailored to meet the needs of each family. Tours are provided almost every day, and you can schedule one.
After the tour, a member of our Admissions Team will guide you through the admissions process and answer any questions you may have.
What documents are needed for applications?
We require the following documents to be submitted with each application:
- Proof of identity
- Academic records from the past 3 years
- A recommendation from a current teacher or principal.
A checklist of the required documents to be submitted is also provided in the online Applicant Page that is created when you submit an application.
Is an application interview necessary?
How will my child be tested during the application process?
Is there a deadline for applications, and when can my child start?
Admissions at MBIS operates on a rolling enrollment basis, allowing you to submit applications and start your child at any time during the school year. Once all required documents are submitted, the process typically takes about two weeks to complete testing, interviews, and decisions, followed by notification of results and a start date. Please note that timelines may be extended at the beginning of the school year due to a higher volume of applications.
Typically, the academic year begins in late August and ends in mid-June. Optional Summer School is also available until mid-July.

How do I pay the application fee?
Does MBIS offer sibling discounts?
How proficient in English does my child need to be to enroll?
We are not a Catholic/Christian family. Can we still apply to MBIS?
Does the school provide student visas?
Are students with special needs accepted?
MBIS welcomes all applicants, but our personnel and facilities may not be equipped to accommodate the full range of student needs. Admissions and placement decisions are made on an individual basis, with recommendations from the Admissions Team and final decisions by the Divisional Heads.
Please note that our facilities currently lack ramps and elevators, which may limit access for students with specific physical access requirements.
It is essential that any identified learning needs or relevant issues are fully disclosed during the application process. Failure to do so may result in denial or withdrawal of admission.
Are any grades full? Are there wait lists?
Some grade levels are nearing capacity, and new applicants may be placed in a wait pool. Please note that this operates as a pool of candidates rather than a sequential list. When a space becomes available, the most suitable candidate will be selected from the pool. For further details, please refer to our Admissions Policy & Procedures
