Applying to SJC

Admission interviews take place at the School. Applicants should bring the confirmation email with them. The dress code is their school uniform or smart casual. 

The admission interview process evaluates the current level of proficiency in English and Chinese in an age-appropriate way, their academic performance, extra-curricular interest, and their potential to thrive in and contribute to the School’s diverse international community. 

Once completed, parents will receive notification of their child’s interview within 3-7 days. If you have not received any notification after 7 days, please contact our office for further details.
