High School Transcripts
To qualify for admission, underage applicants (16 and 17-year-olds) who have not yet graduated from senior high school or completed secondary education must submit transcripts showing completion of at least 9th grade or the equivalent. Submission requirements depend on the grade level completed at the time of application:
- Applicants who have completed only 9th grade must submit transcripts for 9th grade.
- Applicants who have completed at least the first semester of 10th grade must submit all transcripts for all grades completed from 10th grade onward. They do not need to submit 9th grade transcripts.
Transcripts must show the underage applicant has above-average/B average results overall or rank in the top 20% of their class. Students who do not meet the minimum grade requirement can be reconsidered for admission once they are 18 years of age or graduate from senior high school, whichever comes first.
