International Applicants

Harrow International School New York acknowledges and respects the value and sense of global perspective that international students offer. With that in mind, we strive to attract students from a wide range of backgrounds. Harrow New York seeks to become a Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) certified school to welcome international students. Until certification, we are unable to admit international students who do not already hold US residency or an appropriate visa.

For overseas or long-distance applicants who are unable to travel to New York, the admissions assessment process can be administered under examination conditions by special arrangement and interviews will take place remotely via video conferencing.  

All lessons and examinations are conducted in English, with the exception of modern and classic languages. It is essential that applicants possess a high level of fluency in written and conversational English if it is not their first language, so that they are fully able to access the curriculum which is delivered in English. If lessons to support ‘English as an Additional Language’ (EAL) are required for the student to meet with success, provided the student already has a high level of fluency, this can be arranged as part of our program offering.
