Admissions

You can place your child in the queue from February 1st the year after they were born at the earliest.

Please contact the school’s admissions team for more information regarding opportunities to visit the school. Further details about open house days can also be found on each school’s website.

Before the admissions process begins, the school will send out an email to notify you that the process is underway. If you are offered a place, you must respond within the specified deadline. If no response is received, the place will be offered to the next person in the queue.

You are welcome to contact a specific school you applied to for information regarding your current queue position.

Each school has their own queue, and it is unfortunately not possible to transfer a queue position or accumulated queue time between schools. However, you are more than welcome to be in the queue for multiple schools simultaneously. You can easily add another school by logging into your SchoolSoft profile.

No, if you decline an offer, you will forfeit your place in the queue, and the offer will immediately pass to the next applicant. If you change your mind at a later date, you are welcome to submit a completely new application.

Each school maintains its own separate queue. We operate on a first-come, first-served basis, as we believe this is the fairest approach. Sibling priority applies when a sibling currently attends, or has been accepted into, an IES school at the time when the next sibling is due to start. You can easily add the sibling’s Swedish personal identity number (personnummer) to your profile. Please note that being in the queue for, or having a place at, one IES school does not grant you priority at our other schools.

Apply in just three steps:

1. Click Join the Queue.
2. Choose the school you want to apply for (Every school has its own queue. You can place your child in the queue from 1 February the year after they were born).
3. Fill in the form including your details and those of your child so that we can stay in touch and let you know if a place becomes available.

There is no exam or test for your child to pass if they would like to learn at our school. Places are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.

Because of the way that we are funded we are only able to offer education to students registered as living in Sweden. You can apply for a place for any student who has a Swedish national identity number (personnummer), even if they have not yet moved back to Sweden. If you do not yet have a Swedish national identity number but are moving to Sweden and would still like to apply, please contact the school for advice.

Write to the school and let us know your queue ID number or personnummer and the information that you would like to change. You can find contact details for our schools here.
