5 Important Considerations for Grade 10 Enrollment
- Students are admitted to only one preference, meaning that if they are admitted to their first preference, they will not be considered for their second preference, and vice versa, even if the school lowers its admission score.
- For online registration, students can change their confirmed preference if they have been admitted to multiple schools. However, after 24 hours, the system will automatically lock the function, and students will not be able to confirm or change their preferences. The time limit for online enrollment varies by region, so students should pay close attention to the deadlines.
- Students must be mindful of the timelines and procedures for receiving enrollment documents as announced by the high schools on their websites or notice boards.
Students who are admitted to their first preference will not be considered for their second preference, and vice versa.
- Students who have been admitted and have received an enrollment confirmation letter or supplementary admission offer must submit their enrollment documents and confirmation letter to the high school within the specified timeframe. If they fail to do so, the high school will not include their names on the list of admitted students.
- If students wish to enroll in their second-choice school, they must have a score that is at least 1.5 points higher than the admission score of that school. Students can check their scores for both preferences together.
For more information, please refer to the official websites of the Department of Education and Training in your respective city or province. We hope that this guide has provided clarity and will help ensure a smooth enrollment process for students and their families.
