How to Apply
We suggest that you start collecting the various documents to avoid a last-minute panic. Once you start an
application, we can see it in our data base and so we are informed that you are applying. This will allow us to
contact you with important information (or to remind you gently about deadlines...)
We do NOT accept paper documents or incomplete dossiers. All applications must go through Applications
Online via our website http://sectioninternationale.org/college-applications/
Once you press APPLY NOW, you will be asked to create/log into an account:
• If this is the first time you are applying through Applications Online, you will need to enter a valid
email and password. You will receive an email to validate the account. Once you have validated the
account, you can start to fill in the details required in the Application Form.
• If you have already used Applications Online, you should use the same account and the option
“Add a Child”. Please note that you need to “Add a Child” even if you created the account for the
child currently in CM2...It will be treated as a new application for a change of programme.
• You do not have to finish the application in one go, but we do urge you to use “SAVE” at the end of
each page to avoid having to start again...
• Once you have filled in the personal details, you can start uploading your documents.
ALL documents must be uploaded in PDF FORMAT
Documents are assessed on merit, not the order of arrival, so we urge you to make sure that your child’s
dossier is complete before submitting, as you will be unable to change it or add documents later.
• Letter of motivation in English from the parents. This can be typed with Word (or equivalent),
exported and uploaded. You are NOT required to print, sign, scan and upload. The letter should
explain family dynamics, past schooling, etc. Please remember that the team of teachers at the
College level do not know your child so any important information you wish to pass on should be
included here.
• School reports for the previous school year: you will need to upload the reports for CM1 (or
equivalent). Please compile ONE PDF document for the two or three reports you have for the
school year 2018-2019.
• School reports for the current school year: depending on the school your child is currently
attending, you may receive this as late as the end of January 2020. Please wait for this report
before submitting, as we can only assess complete dossiers.
• Handwritten piece of work: Please follow your child’s class work and homework closely in order to
be able to submit a piece of work reflecting your child’s level. This piece of work could be a book
report, creative writing, a series of diary entries, etc. Please do not submit spelling or grammar
exercises. We are looking to assess their level of vocabulary, grammar, sentence structure, general
presentation and punctuation. You may submit several pieces of work, but only ONE PDF
document.
• CNED documents: this concerns children who are not currently attending a school which is officially
recognised by the French ministry of Education and applies to children usually abroad.
• Other documents you may find relevant: this may concern previous exams or certificates. Also,
previous years of school reports (English-speaking school if already moved back, or French school
before moving abroad, ...)

Please ask your child’s current English Teacher to submit this recommendation form before the deadline,

order to allow the teacher to get to know your child and his/her level.

during the Commission Collège.

application fee of 105 Euros. This is to be paid online using a credit card (Visa or Mastecard). These costs

school. Please refer to the distance testing procedure on our website for further details. The distance tests
cannot take place before the official testing date, but we do encourage families to have their children sit their

Timing of the Application Process
Once your child has sat the test, the papers will be marked and assessed by the team of College teachers.
