Admissions Process

Thank you for your interest in La Scuola International School! The admissions process for San Francisco and Silicon Valley private schools can be overwhelming, but we are here to guide you through the application process.

Students are not required to speak Italian to enroll in preschool, Kindergarten, Grade 1 and Grade 6. Students applying to Grades 2 to 5 as well as Grades 7 and 8 are evaluated on a case-by-case basis during the admissions process. 

We still have a few spaces open for the 2024 - 2025 school year, depending on the grade level and campus location. If you're looking for a spot in the current school year or if you have any questions regarding the application process on our Ravenna Hub portal (which helps you track your application progress, register for events, and view admissions decisions), please reach out directly to our Admissions team at admissions@lascuolasf.org. Please find key admissions dates and processes by grade level outlined below.
