Applications may be submitted up to three years prior to the desired year of entry. Beyond Nursery, place availability relies on withdrawals and, as such, demand generally exceeds availability of places in all other year groups.
Entry at Nursery is strongly encouraged for younger applicants. Additional considerations apply for children who are Singapore citizens (please refer to our Admissions Policy and Conditions Governing Enrolment).
Below outlines our admissions process, and our team are on hand to guide you if you require help along the way.
Step 1 – Submit Application via our Online Portal
Applications for entry in August 2023/24 are only open for Nursery, Year 9, Year 10 and Year 12 (IB Diploma Programme only).
Applications for entry in 2024/25 are open. Any application submitted after 15 February 2024 will be considered as late application. Notification of application outcomes will be communicated in April 2024 at the latest. Applications may be submitted after 15 February 2024, however we cannot guarantee notification of an outcome in April for these applications.
Please contact admissions@tts.edu.sg for further clarification.
Applications must be submitted via our Online Admissions Portal, and must include all required documentation.
Step 2 – Application Fee Payment
Once your application has been submitted, the non-refundable application fee of SG$1,000 must be paid for the application to be processed. Applications will only be accepted and reviewed once payment and all required documentation has been received.
You can make the payment using a credit card from your OpenApply parent dashboard once you have submitted your application.
Step 3 – Interviews and Assessments
Interviews and assessments may be required on an age-appropriate basis. Assessments are completed throughout the year and our Admissions team can advise you on any assessments your child may need to take. Interviews may be conducted for students applying to the Junior and Senior schools.
Step 4 – Offers
A small number of early offers will be made in December at the discretion of the School. Nursery offers continue to be made from the end of January prior to an August start. Most offers for all other year groups are made in April prior to an August start. Students who have not been offered a place will be notified, with a small number waitpooled for entry should places become available during the year (up to a maximum of two years).
