The current intake year levels at Emmanuel College are Prep, Year 7 and Year 10. Applications for these year levels must be submitted by January 31, one year prior to enrolment. Vacancies in non-intake year levels are filled as they become available. Families are invited to complete an Application for Enrolment to join our waiting list for their desired cohort. When a vacancy occurs, we will consult the waiting list and review all current applications at that time.

Prep

Children in Queensland are eligible for Prep the year they turn five if they have a birthdate before June 30. However, at Emmanuel College, we build our cohorts using a birthday cut-off from April 1. Our experience shows students having the advantage of a delayed start thrive throughout their educational journey, especially in their senior years. If your child has a birthday after April 1, we recommend an application for the following year.

To apply for enrolment at Emmanuel, please complete an online Application for Enrolment form.

You will need to supply documentation in your submission, including a birth certificate, evidence of Australian citizenship, and current school reports (if applicable). Please note that incomplete applications cannot be processed.

An application fee of $110.00 (including GST) is payable with each application. This fee covers administrative costs of the enrolment process and is not refundable if an application is unsuccessful.

Upon the application deadline, the Admissions Committee will review all submissions and begin our interview process.

Please note that the selection process is not based on the order of application submission. All applications are evaluated as vacancies arise. Although we cannot guarantee a place for siblings, we do give preference to siblings of current students. We understand the importance of family connections within our school and strive to accommodate siblings whenever possible.

Due to the volume of applications we receive, we are unable to offer all families an interview. Families will be invited to interview when a vacancy arises.

If you are to be offered an interview, you will be contacted to arrange a date and time. Interviews with potential students should be accompanied by one or both parents or guardians. An invitation to interview is not a confirmation of enrolment.

If your application and interview are successful, we will confirm your offer in writing. You will have the opportunity to respond within a set period of time, laid out within the letter of offer. If you do not respond within that period, the place may be offered to another student.

Written notification of a place is the only official, reliable acceptance of enrolment that we will provide. This offer will only be secured upon the return of your Enrolment Contract, signed by all parties (usually two parents or guardians) with payment of the Enrolment Fee and Capital Contribution.

Payments Required at Confirmation of Enrolment*

Acceptance of Enrolment Fee: $100 per student

Initial Capital Contribution:

• $600 for the first child
• $400 for the second child
• Nil for all subsequent children

*These fees are non-refundable in the event that you decide not to proceed with enrolment after official acceptance. In cases of family emergency or extreme hardship, you may make a request for a compassionate consideration in regard to a refund, which the College may consider, but not necessarily accept.
