At Delhi Scholars International School, we believe that every child is unique, with limitless potential waiting to be discovered and nurtured. The choice of the right school marks the beginning of a significant educational journey. At DSIS, our admission process is thoughtfully structured to be transparent, systematic and parent-friendly, ensuring a smooth, seamless and welcoming experience for every prospective family.

Parents seeking admission for their ward may connect with our Admission Department through any of the following convenient channels:
Parents may contact the school reception and request to speak with the Admission Counsellor for information regarding admission availability, eligibility criteria, academic programmes and the admission procedure.
Parents are cordially invited to visit the school from Monday to Saturday, between 8:00 AM and 4:00 PM, to interact with the Admission Counsellor, explore the school's academic offerings and gain first-hand insights into its infrastructure and facilities.
Parents may submit the Admission Enquiry Form available on the school's official website. Our Admission Team will connect with them to address their queries, share relevant information and extend the necessary guidance.
Following the initial enquiry, parents may visit the school to complete the registration formalities.
Please note that registration is the preliminary step in the admission process and does not, in itself, guarantee admission.
At DSIS, the assessment process is designed to understand each child's academic preparedness, conceptual clarity, developmental readiness and potential to progress to the next academic level. The assessment is age-appropriate and aligned with the learning expectations of the respective class.
Applicants seeking admission from Prep to Class XII are required to appear for a written assessment based on the academic competencies and learning outcomes prescribed for the preceding class.
The assessment will broadly cover the following areas:

For our youngest applicants, the admission process comprises an informal, child-friendly interaction with the Primary Coordinator. The objective is to understand the child's developmental readiness in a comfortable, encouraging and non-threatening environment.
The interaction will broadly focus on:
| Area | Parameters Observed |

The interaction is not intended to create academic pressure on young children; rather, it enables the school to appreciate their individual developmental milestones and readiness for a structured learning environment.
The written assessment or preliminary interaction will help the school understand the applicant's academic preparedness and suitability for the class applied for.
The assessment outcome, along with the interaction with the School Principal and completion of the prescribed admission formalities, will form part of the overall admission consideration.
Upon completion of the written assessment or preliminary interaction, the Admission Counsellor will facilitate an interaction between the School Principal, the parents and the child.
This meeting serves as an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of the child's educational background, discuss parental aspirations and expectations, and acquaint the family with the school's vision, educational philosophy, academic ethos and holistic approach to learning.
At DSIS, we value this interaction as the foundation of a meaningful partnership between the school and the family.
Following the Principal's interaction and the subsequent admission decision, the Admission Counsellor will guide parents through the requisite fee payment formalities in coordination with the Accounts Department.
Parents will be apprised of the applicable admission fee structure, payment schedule and prescribed modes of payment to ensure clarity and convenience throughout the process.
To facilitate the completion of admission formalities, parents will be provided with a comprehensive checklist of the requisite documents.
They are requested to:
Timely submission of the requisite documents will facilitate the smooth processing and confirmation of admission.
Admission shall be formally confirmed upon the successful completion of all prescribed documentation and clearance of the applicable admission fees.
