The registration process
Contact us
Contact us to arrange an admission meeting.
To the form
Admission meeting
The admission meeting gives us an opportunity to get to know the student and the family, to find out about previous schooling and why the student wants to join us as well as what type of programme would be suitable. We look at academic and non-academic factors such as the student’s motivation, interests and preferred way of learning. Special consideration is also given to sporting, musical and dancing skills.
English assessment
Students whose native language is not English must demonstrate a B1+ level on a test to be fully accepted into the program.
Other assessments
All students wishing to join in grade 10 or 11 must take entry assessments in Maths and Science to ensure they are at the right level.
Report cards
We ask for school report cards and grades from previous schools (scanned copies by e-mail is fine).
Talent
We check the individual requirements in a consultation. Test trainings and instrumental auditions as well as external recommendations also serve as a basis for decision-making.
Insight week
Students can register for non-binding trial days at the school.
Decision
The school management will decide together with you and your child whether the Swiss Academy Basel is suitable for your child.
Register now and give your child the best education possible.
