Admission Requiremets

Admission to AIS Lagos is based on the following criteria:

1) citizenship of parent(s)
2) employment of parents
3) date of application

US citizens have the highest priority for admission. Children of parents employed by companies paying an annual Special Assessment Fee are given the next priority. All other admissions are contingent upon available space. The admissions categories below list the order of priority for applicants. 

1. Children of US Embassy/Consulate employees.
2. Children of AISL Overseas Hire certificated faculty and professional staff (as defined in Policy 6.041).
3. Children of Companies enrolled under the Traditional Special Assessment program.
4. Children of Companies enrolled under active Guarantee Enrollment plans.
5. Children of US citizens.
6. Children of non-U-S citizens with siblings presently enrolled in AISL
7. Children of non-US citizens from diplomatic missions
8. Children of non-US citizens whose parent(s) are on expatriate status employed by a US-based company ( not covered under Priority 3 or 4)
9. Children of AISL Local certificated faculty and support staff (eligibility defined in Policy 6.041, 6.042).
10. Children of non-US citizens who were previously enrolled at AISL (seeking readmission)
11. Children of non-US citizens who themselves have US citizenship
12. All other non-US citizens

It should be noted that AISL does not have special classes for students who have been defined as gifted or who have been diagnosed with specific learning or behavioral disabilities. Your child may be denied admission if the above mentioned conditions exist and we cannot adequately address them.

Independent of admissions category, enrolled students who are in good standing have the highest priority for continued enrollment and places will not be eliminated for those students in order to admit new students.
