Admissions

A Club for Life:
Belonging for Every Future Man of Significance

Michaelhouse is non-sectarian in its admissions policy welcoming young applicants who will thrive in our unique environment from all backgrounds. Entry into E Block (Grade 8) is based on previous academic performance, a personal interview with the Rector or Deputy Rector, recent school reports, and a confidential recommendation from the applicant’s current Headmaster.

Applications for Grade 8 can be registered any time from birth, with registration encouraged by the end of the Grade 6 year. Registered boys and their families are invited for a tour of our campus and an interview during Grade 6 to experience the school firsthand.

Admission to D and C Blocks (Grades 9 and 10) is possible if space allows and is based on the same criteria. Michaelhouse also invites registrations for 2032 and beyond, with no registration fee required. Please note that applications for Grade 8 entry in 2026 received after 7 February 2025 will be added to our waitlist.
