New Student Admissions
New student admissions are open throughout the year. Please email admissions to check if a spot is available before submitting the admission application or to inquire regarding the status of your child's admission to eadmissions@abraarschool.com.
New Student Admissions
Admission process for new students occurs in the following three steps:
STEP 1
All new students (not current students) seeking admissions to Abraar School should use the New Student Admission Application to apply for admissions to Abraar Elementary School (Pre-K to Grade 6). You need to submit only once. Please print the confirmation at the end of the registration as proof. Please note that your registration is not complete until we receive a payment for the application fee. Your priority will be determined based on the time we receive your payment. All applicants are put on the waiting list in the applicable Priority Category. Upon the availability of a spot, they will be notified to start STEP 2 of the admission process.
STEP 2
Upon the availability of a spot, a notification email will be sent to submit required documents for review to determine eligibility for admissions. At this point, students may be called in for an admission test, an interview, and/or to submit reference letters from their school.
STEP 3
Students will be notified of their admission status. If admitted, parents/guardians will be required to complete the online Registration Form on MACSIS along with paying the Registration Fee.

Please note the following:
There is a one-time, non-refundable application fee to apply for admission.
