CMIS strives to maintain a balanced international environment where English is the language of instruction. We welcome applications from international students who:

Qualify academically (as determined by school records and standardized entrance assessment results),
Meet the required English-language proficiency expectations for their grade level (as determined by CMIS guidelines).
We accept a limited number of academically qualified non-native English speakers, provided that their English-language proficiency falls within the CMIS guidelines for English Language Development (ELD) and there is space available.

We have limited availability for students with mild learning disabilities (as determined by previous school records, standardized testing, and documentation such as an IEP, school support plan or professional diagnosis) provided their disability falls within the CMIS guidelines for learning support and there is space available.

Personal Documents

  • Completed online application form with electronic signature
  • Recent passport-sized photograph (headshot)
  • Birth certificate (copy)
  • Passport photo page or Thai ID card (copy)

Recommendation

A recommendation form will be sent automatically to the reference contact you provide. It must be completed by the applicant's current teacher or academic counselor.

Open Enrollment:  CMIS accepts applications for Elementary School (Preschool through Grade 5) and Middle School (Grades 6 - 8), and High School (Grades 9 - 12) throughout the year as long as space is available.  All applicants must pass their required birth date by the start of school in August to be considered for that year’s enrollment. This standard remains the same for those who wish to join in the second semester.

Closed Semester Enrollment:  CMIS has a closed semester policy for Grade 12.  The intake of new students in Grade 12 occurs only twice a year, at the beginning of the Fall Semester in August and the Spring Semester in January.

Exceptions:  In some cases, mid-semester High School applicants may be enrolled in an auditing status for the remainder of the current semester and then allowed to take courses for credit at the beginning of the next semester.

CMIS strives to keep class sizes small in order to provide individualized and differentiated instruction needed to help each student succeed. Although we expect to have vacancies at each grade level, we reserve spaces for qualified priority applicants.

The CMIS Priority Categories are as follows:

  • Christian Missionary families
  • CMIS Staff children
  • Diplomatic / Consular families
  • Former CMIS families who are returning from abroad
  • NGO / Non-profit organization families
  • Siblings of current CMIS students

All other applicants are considered on a space-available basis.
