Content of the entrance exam

In the entrance examination, we are interested in what the student knows and how we can cooperate with him/her, to what extent he/she can be developed, what his/her values are, and how this can be fitted into the values and structure of the school and the existing class community. In addition to the values of the student, the values of the family, the supportive and cooperative parent are of particular importance. The entrance examination process can be divided into two components. These are the entrance examination and the interview with parents.

The entrance exam

The entrance exam consists of a short written test in Math and Hungarian (English Plus applicants also take an English test) and an interview. The latter takes place in front of an admissions committee made up of prospective homeroom teachers and mentors.

Those writing the central written admission test will only take part in an interview.

Interview with parents (Middle School)

The interview with parents is conducted with the involvement of the lead admissions teacher and the Director of Middle School. The interview is an important part of the admission process and is communicated to the families in advance, as good cooperation with parents is key to our success and to effective cooperation between school, child and parent. It is important to clarify what the parent expects from the school and what the school can offer. In this case, too, the acceptance of the school's values and the internal dynamics of the existing classroom are to be given priority.

Elementary school students (8th graders) use the Public Education Information Office (KIFIR) to apply for admission to high schools. In this case, the pupil writes the central written admission test, the result of which is taken into account for the assessment. To fill out the application form, you will need the OM code of the institution of your choice and, within the institution, the code of the department you have chosen. Even in this case, please fill in the application form above.
