Admissions Procedure
AMADEUS International School Vienna welcomes applications from students aged three to 18 regardless of gender, ethnicity, race, religion or physical abilities. We accept applications on a first-come, first-served basis.
Please keep in mind that boarding applicants who require a residence permit to study in Austria should apply at least six months prior to their anticipated start date. AMADEUS Vienna cannot influence the time it takes for a student to receive his/her residence permit as it is processed and issued through the Austrian immigration authorities.
