Admissions Process

We use OpenApply admissions management to ensure that the admissions process is as smooth, friendly and easy as possible. Our admissions process consists of four clear steps.

Step 1: Submit an enquiry form for a campus tour and an introduction to the College

We encourage all parents applying to our school to submit an enquiry form to visit the campus for a short tour and introduction to the College. This gives us a valuable opportunity to get to know our community members more, and allows parents to gain a deeper insight into Wellington Values and Identity, our vision and mission, and our commitment to a holistic education. If you are unable to attend in person, due to researching the College from abroad, we can arrange a Teams chat, telephone introduction, or a tour once you arrive in Hangzhou.

Step 2: Submit an application by completing the application form in OpenApply

Submit an application and create an OpenApply parent account by clicking " Apply now".

If you have already created an OpenApply account: Log back into the OpenApply account you created by clicking "Parent Portal Login"

Step 3: Submit the required application documents and pay the RMB 2,000 non-refundable application fee

Once you have submitted an application, the next step is to submit all of the required documents. A checklist of required documents can be found in your OpenApply parent account. Details of fees required are available in the OpenApply portal.

Step 4: Admissions assessment

Once you have completed the previous steps, a member of the Admissions team will assist you with the rest of the enrolment process, including any required admissions assessments.

If at any stage in this process you require assistance, please do not hesitate to contact our Admissions Department on (+86-571) 8239-6366 or via email at admissions.wcih@wellingtoncollege.cn
