Step 1 — Understand the Integrated Programme and target year level. Singapore International School @ Can Tho offers an Integrated Programme that runs from Year 1 to Year 9 and is open to both Vietnamese and foreign students. The programme is designed to accommodate students entering Year 1 and continuing through Year 9. Placement into a specific year level is determined by the student's age, placement test results, and the number of available places in the class.
Step 2 — Gather required documents for enrolment (child) and for parents. For the child, assemble four passport-sized photos, the child's passport (one copy), a certified copy of the birth certificate, original or certified copies of previous school reports, and a Health Check Certificate with vaccination records. For Kindergarten to KIK students, include original vaccination records as applicable and an Accident Insurance Plan for the child if you choose to opt into the school's insurance. For parents, provide copies of a foreigner's passport or Vietnamese ID as appropriate. These documents are required to support enrolment into the Integrated Programme.
Step 3 — Submit the enrolment application and enter the placement process. Enrolment into the Integrated Programme depends on age-appropriate placement and the results of the placement test, together with available class vacancies. The school maintains class sizes in line with programme regulations to ensure the standard of teaching and learning. If the placement test results align with a vacant place, the enrolment process can proceed.
Step 4 — Understand how class placement and capacity affect admission. Grade level is decided after considering age, placement test results, and existing class vacancies. Class size is maintained in accordance with school regulations for each programme, which means admission depends on both the test outcomes and the availability of seats in the target class. This helps preserve teaching quality and student support.
Step 5 — Note sibling priority (if applicable). If parents already have one or more siblings studying at Can Tho SIS, priority will be given to a new sibling, subject to available places. Sibling priority does not override age/placement considerations or class vacancies, but it can influence placement decisions when seats are limited.
Step 6 — Final enrolment decision and next steps. Enrolment in the Integrated Programme is contingent on the age-appropriate placement, placement test results, and class vacancies, as well as the ability to fill the requested year level. Once these conditions are met, enrolment proceeds and the student begins the Integrated Programme in Year 1 or the appropriate year level. The school reserves the right to place students according to age, test outcomes, and seat availability.
Step 7 — Integrated Programme context and commencement. The Integrated Programme commences at Year 1 and extends to Year 9, providing a continuous pathway within the Can Tho SIS system. Families should plan for the start of the academic year according to the school calendar and any placement outcomes.
Scholarship programmes have been offered in the past at Singapore International School @ Can Tho. A 2022–2023 scholarship scheme provided 20 scholarships for Year 6 and Year 10 Integrated Programme entries, with two award levels: 90% or 70% of annual school fees, allocated across 10 Year-6 scholarships and 10 Year-10 scholarships.

Fees covered by the scholarship do not include Registration Fee, Deposit, or other non-fee items such as uniforms, textbooks, insurance, meals, or field trips. Scholarship renewal is contingent on meeting academic and behavioural requirements, and the school can withdraw scholarships for non-compliance or late payment of fees. There was also a Talent Scholarship programme in 2019 offering a limited number of scholarships for Year 4–Year 7 entrants, with scholarships covering a portion of school fees for the duration of study within the Integrated Programme, and with terms that limit eligibility, specify non-cash awards, and require maintenance of good conduct and academic performance.

The Binh Duong New City campus is listed in the campus options for enquiries, and the contact details are provided there for follow-up.
2. Enrolment documentation.

These requirements are specified to ensure proper placement and record-keeping before any classroom placement is considered.
3. Interview and class vacancy review. Enrollment is determined after an interview and a review of current class vacancies. The age of the child is used to place them into the appropriate year level, and class vacancies are taken into account in that placement decision. This means that even if a child is eligible by age, a place cannot be guaranteed unless a vacancy exists.
4. Year level placement and class size. Students are placed in a specific year level according to age, with final placement influenced by interview outcomes and available vacancies. Kindergarten classes have a capped size to maintain a quality learning environment, with a maximum between 12 and 25 students depending on the age of the children. Priority for siblings may be given when places are available.
5. Fees payment, registration, and payment timelines. The school offers two programmes, each with its own registration fee and fee schedule: the Integrated Kindergarten Programme and the International Kindergarten Programme. School fees are payable either yearly or termly, with a payment plan that specifies amounts due 30 days before the first day of school (yearly) or 30 days before the first day and 14 days before the last day of the current term (termly).
6. Next steps after fee arrangement. Following acceptance, families complete enrollment forms and finalize the agreed payment schedule per the chosen programme. The school's fee schedules provide the framework for when and how payments are due, including the distinction between yearly and termly plans and the corresponding deadlines. Families should coordinate with the campus to receive the exact enrollment forms and confirm the start date and any orientation activities.
