Admission’s Policy IB Diploma Programme at ISGS
 
The IB Diploma Programme at ISGS is a selective programme.  Given the advanced nature of the program certain requirements need to be met in the pre-IB years in order to be admitted to the IB diploma programme for the final two years of high school. To be eligible for enrolment in the IB diploma programme in grade 11, the following requirements must be met:

  1. The student must be recognized by ISGS faculty and administration as having good study habits, organization and time management, and a high degree of academic motivation (curiosity for learning, seriousness of purpose, academic discipline).
  2. Applicants from another school should demonstrate this with a recommendation letter from their former school.
  3. The student must have a good academic record (at least 4.50 average or equivalent)
  4.  The student must demonstrate his/her commitment to service by having fulfilled at
    least 20 hours of community service before beginning the IB Diploma programme.
  5. The student must have a strong command of academic English.
  6. The student must demonstrate moral values, mission and academic honesty in-line
    with the IB program.
  7. The student must find a suitable selection of courses that aligns with their long-term
    goals and the quality of their previous studies.

To demonstrate these the student must complete the following:
 A letter of recommendation from a teacher
 An interview by the Application Committee
   A pre-selection of diploma courses (bearing in mind that the Committee might ask for changes and that the school cannot guarantee that all courses will be offered)


The detailed application process is explained in the Application form of the current academic year.

Successful applicants and their parents will get detailed information about the content and nature of the IBDP, which they must accept before enrolment.
