Enrolment at Carey

<h3>Entry levels </h3>
<h4>Our key entry levels are three-year-old ELC, Prep, Year 5, Year 7 and Year 10. We may have openings in other year levels, so we welcome applications for any year.<br /></h4>

Step 1. Apply

<p>Complete our online application form and pay the application fee. </p>
<p>Completing an application is a prerequisite for enrolment but does not guarantee your child a place at Carey.<br /></p>

Step 2. Assigned to waitlist

<p>We will assign all applications to our waitlist according to your preference and our <a href="https://assets.carey.com.au/publications/Policies/Enrolment-Procedure-and-Policy-local-students.pdf">Enrolment Procedure and Policy for Local Students</a>. We will then send a letter acknowledging that we received your application.</p>

Step 3. Formal offer process

<p>Offers for key entry levels normally commence around two-and-a-half years prior to the year of entry. For all other year levels, offers are generally made the year prior to entry when places become available. </p>
<p>At the commencement of the offer process, we may reach out to families who have children on the waitlist to confirm you are still interested in enrolling your child at Carey. When a place becomes available for your child, based on our priority for admission, we will send you a formal Letter of Offer.<br /></p>
<p>Priority of admission to the School is as follows:</p>
<ol><li>to siblings* and children of permanent staff members</li><li>to children of Old Carey Grammarians who apply in the first year after the child’s birth</li><li>to children of other families who apply in the first year after the child’s birth</li><li>to children of Old Carey Grammarians who apply after their child turns twelve months of age</li><li>by date of application thereafter.</li></ol>
<p>Consideration is also given to the children of Baptist Ministers.</p>
<p><em>* Sibling priority not applied to children where the sibling is enrolled in ELC. Carey reserves the right to apply discretion for exceptional circumstances </em></p>

Step 4. Accept offer and confirm enrolment

<p>You will need to accept the offer in writing by completing our Enrolment Agreement form and paying the enrolment fee outlined in your Letter of Offer.</p>

<h4>Additional information and requirements </h4>
<p>You can find further details about our application and enrolment process in our <a href="https://assets.carey.com.au/publications/Policies/Enrolment-Procedure-and-Policy-local-students.pdf">Enrolment Procedure and Policy for Local Students</a>, including how we prioritise admission to the School. </p>
<p>It is important to let us know if your contact details change during any stage of the application process so we are able to reach you.<br /></p>
<p>For enrolment in ELC, children must be fully immunised. Medicare Immunisation Certificates are required to confirm enrolment. See the Victorian Government’s <a href="https://www.health.vic.gov.au/immunisation/no-jab-no-play" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">‘No Jab No Play’</a> immunisation policy for more information.<br /></p>
<p>An interview with the Head of School may form part of the offer process. For Year 8 to 12 applications, recent school reports and performance will be considered.<br /></p>
