Admissions

Admissions
1. The Jubilee School (Jubilee Institute) uses a clearly defined, three-stage admissions path designed for academically strong applicants. First, nominations open in December each year; applications must be submitted electronically by an applicant who is in grade 8 and is either Jordanian or has a valid residency. Applicants must demonstrate academic excellence and meet the school's multi-criteria standards, which include high averages from the last three semesters, performance on the Jubilee Scholastic Aptitude Test (JSAT), an Evaluation of Potential Creativity (EPoC), Creative Writing, an English test for 10th grade if applicable, and a personal interview. After submitting the application, families receive instructions by email on how to proceed with the initial application fees so the candidate can advance to testing.

2. Testing is conducted on dates announced by the school. Testing consists of the Jubilee Scholastic Aptitude Test (JSAT) with 100 questions over about 135 minutes, covering verbal, mathematical and logical sections; the EPoC assessment to gauge creative potential; and an Expressive Writing task (a 150-word paragraph, in Arabic or English). The English 10th-grade language requirement may apply for the national program, and the assessment package concludes with a personal statement and a structured interview. Dates for tests are published on the school's platforms and through the Ministry of Education.

3. The personal interview lasts about 20–30 minutes and is conducted by a committee of teachers and educators. It serves to identify behavioral traits, leadership aspirations, and alignment with the school's program and values. During the interview, applicants learn more about Jubilee School life and have an opportunity to ask questions about programs and campus life. If the candidate meets the admission criteria and performs well in testing and interview, the school proceeds to the next steps.

4. Formal registration follows a successful admission decision. The student is officially registered after fees are paid and the academic file is submitted to the Admission Department. All admitted students must attend a three-week Summer School to prepare for school life and the program; transfer procedures and Summer School dates are communicated via the school's Edunation platform after fee payment and registration completion. If guardians fail to pay by the specified dates, the seat and any scholarship offered may be forfeited. In addition to the core admission steps, there is a boarding option on campus with two gender-segregated dormitories, with supervision and furnished rooms; there is also a preparatory Summer School and a boarding service for provincial students. These components may be relevant to families considering the overall transition process and housing needs.

Scholarships
The Jubilee School offers full or partial scholarships to a number of students in the national program who meet the admission requirements. The value of the scholarship depends on the family's gross income and covers school fees and internal housing for students from the north and south governorates and from outside the Kingdom; it does not cover books, school uniforms, or transportation. Continuation of the scholarship depends on maintaining a specified academic average. Parents may apply for financial aid after the admissions testing results are announced. The scholarship program is described as part of the national program, with details about eligibility and coverage provided in the admission and tuition materials.

Waitlist
There is no published waitlist or pool system described for Jubilee School admissions.
