*Waiting pool
The College runs a waiting pool for qualified applicants. Please note that the waiting pool is determined by best fit and not on a first come, first served basis. An applicant can be placed in the waiting pool only after the application has been completed, the assessment has been done and applicant has been recommended by the Admissions Committee. A child may be placed initially in a waiting pool to allow us more time to assess seat availability. The Admissions Office will contact families should a child’s waiting pool status change. Unfortunately, not all applicants in the waiting pool successfully secure a place in the College.
