Admissions Criteria
Oak International endeavors to ensure applicants have all necessary information regarding registration conditions procedures.
Compliance with admission requirements in a timely fashion will help secure a place at one of the academies. Those who submit their application after the deadline will be subject to space availability when the admission forms arrive to the desired Academy. In the case of two simultaneous admission requests, preference will be given based on academic grades.
Important Note: Application does not imply the admission of the candidate. In fact, any application may be accepted or rejected by the Academy. We urge you to take this into account so that the students are not left without the corresponding registration in their current school. Parents should avoid clothing and equipment expenses, as well as airline ticket purchase, until the official Academy acceptance letter is received.

Our educational centers’ reputation for academic excellence requires that all candidates maintain an average grade of 85% to be considered for admittance. The following table expresses minimum overall average by country that a student must have reached to be eligible for admission.
