Enrolment Instructions

Upon acceptance of placement, payment of the requested fees is to be made within the required timeframe.

All approved Overseas Representatives have a signed agreement with Caulfield Grammar School to promote the school and to provide prospective parents with promotional material (including prospectus, fees, subject choices and accommodation options). The Overseas Representatives provide an introduction to the school and ongoing assistance with the application procedure.

Please refer to the list of our authorised educational agents on this website.

If a vacancy exists for the relevant year level that the student is applying for, the student will be encouraged to undertake an Australian Educational Assessment Service (AEAS) test.

All costs associated with the AEAS testing are to be paid by the family/ student. Please refer to the AEAS website for indicative costing and description of testing.

AEAS is the only recognised testing procedure for Caulfield Grammar School for students currently studying overseas. The AEAS test examines Mathematics, General Knowledge and English capability (verbal, written, grammar and comprehension) and involves a personal interview.

The education agent or AEAS will advise the family and student of what to bring to the testing procedure.

An English preparation course – English Language Intensive Course for Overseas Students (ELICOS) – may be recommended for completion prior to the commencement at the school. Any requests for ELICOS to be undertaken will be a condition of the Offer of Enrolment.

An application to our school and encouragement to undertake the AEAS test does not imply that Caulfield Grammar School will make an Offer of Enrolment.

For more information, visit the AEAS website: www.aeas.com.au
