Candidates turning in applications thereafter will be contacted within two weeks from the date of submitting a complete application including all required documentation; candidates will be called and notified of the date and time for the next admissions test.

The admissions test is an aptitude test designed to measure the student’s potential success at Darularqam. There is nothing to study for this test. Additionally, an observation or interview session may be scheduled at the discretion of the academy. The academy reserves the right to decline an application for enrollment due to tardiness or failure to show for a scheduled test, observation, or interview.

Students will be admitted based on their potential for success at Darularqam. Darularqam admission is NOT based on a first come first serve basis but the timing of application receipt does merit some preferences. All class sizes are limited. Once classes become full, qualifying students will be placed in a waiting pool in the event that space becomes available. There is no guarantee that your child will be admitted for the 2018-2019 academic year.

If your child is admitted to Darularqam you will be notified in writing and given a deadline for confirmation of your intent to enroll. Confirmation must be accompanied by the payment of fees to be valid. Upon enrollment confirmation, the following fees are required:

  • $25 per family non-refundable registration fee [Due upon confirmation of admission]
  • $100 per child for instructional materials fee
  • $250 per child, tuition installment [Due August 1, 2018 or upon confirmation of admission ]

Refer to the Tuition and Fees section for all applicable fees. Unconfirmed seats will be offered to other qualified candidates if not confirmed by the due date given.

All students are admitted on a probationary basis for the first year and may be dismissed at any time therein for valid academic or disciplinary reasons.
