- KG1/KG2/KG3: ~QAR 11,100 per instalment (based on QAR 33,350).

Admissions

Admissions
Step 0: MOE-aligned admission timeline. The MOE requires NSIS registration deadlines for Qatar residents (for example, February 26, 2026) and sets an age cutoff date of September 30, with transfers between schools following end-of-month deadlines that vary by curriculum (transfers between curricula close at the end of January; transfers within the same curriculum close at the end of February). This framework guides VIS admissions planning.

Step 1: Application submission. Applications are accepted year-round and admission is based on eligibility and seat availability. A completed application is dated as received only after all required supporting documents have been submitted. VIS follows an American curriculum with standards based on Common Core, AERO, and Next Generation Science Standards, and the AP program is implemented where eligibility allows.

Step 2: Admissions testing. Applicants attend admissions testing as scheduled and must arrive on time for their test. Late arrivals may be asked to reschedule due to limited teacher availability.

Step 3: Admission decision. Admission decisions are based on eligibility and seat availability. Submitting a completed application does not guarantee admission. The admissions process includes an assessment to determine placement.

Step 4: Enrollment and fees. Fees are approved annually by the MOE and a current fee structure is published. Enrollment follows MOE-aligned policies and processes.

Step 5: Waiting list. If the desired grade is full, a place on the Waiting List may be offered after the Waiting List Acknowledgement Form is signed. When an opening occurs, the Admissions Team reviews all applicants on the waiting list for that grade and selects a student based on the needs of the existing class. Priority is given to applicants who have siblings currently enrolled at VIS, followed by other admissions priorities.

Step 6: Re-enrollment. A re-enrollment letter is sent to parents annually to guarantee their child's seat for the following year; families should respond accordingly. There is a process to follow for re-enrollment as part of VIS admissions operations.
