Cadmous College
Admissions Requirements
Cadmous College provides an enriched education through both the National Curriculum for Lebanon and International Curriculum, empowering young minds to think creatively and exceed expectations.
Kindergarten
Admission into Foundation Stage (KG1-KG3) is based on student assessments to determine school readiness. The school accepts students who are at the required age. Students will be evaluated based on a verbal interview. During the interview, the teacher observes the child's pencil grip and recognition of colors and shapes. All students must be fully toilet trained before starting school.
Primary, Elementary and Secondary School (Lebanese Program)
Cadmous College is a learning community bound together by the principles of respect, responsibility, and honesty. As such, Cadmous College accepts only students whose record demonstrates a clear commitment to these principles.
The Admissions Interview
Interviews are scheduled either after or before the assessment exams between the family and the Head of the School and/or the relevant division director, depending on the grade level.
English or French Language Assessment
All students of grades (1-12) enrolling in the school are required to sit for an entrance exam in English or French. Applicants must obtain a minimum score based on the grade to which they are applying.
Other Assessments
Students in grades 1 to 12 will sit for placement tests in Mathematics and Arabic. Students requesting admission to grades 7-12 will sit for a proficiency exam in scientific subjects.
International Programs
Cadmous College admits International and local students. The school has a set of fundamental prerequisites for candidates applying to our Pre-IB and IB Diploma Program. If the entrance requirements for the International Program (grade 11) cannot be met, applicants can enroll in Pre-IB courses during the summer that precedes the academic year.
Pre-IB students must have completed year eight and demonstrate a positive attitude and a willingness to work consistently and effectively.
