The interview is a critical part of the enrolment process. One or both parents must attend the College with the child.

In addition to the assessment, the Foundation applicants will also be required to attend an Observation day that is a study day before the school offers a place in order to observe applicants to finalise the assessment of the application.

The school may decide not to offer a place for an applicant without inviting the applicant to the interview. Other applicants will be invited to attend an interview with one of their parents on the scheduled date by the school. An email and SMS message will be sent to the applicant with the details of the interview.

If the applicant fails to finalise the enrolment by the due date (usually 2 weeks after an offer is sent out) provided, the application will automatically be cancelled, and the school will make an offer to other candidates.

Once the enrolment has been finalised and the enrolment fees are paid, the information and submitted documents will then be reviewed. A notification via email and SMS will be sent to parents to advise that the enrolment has been confirmed.

Applicants for some of the year levels may require to make their subject selections after their enrolment is completed. Parents will be informed of the procedure.

One of the parents must attend our Parent Induction program before the applicant starts studying at Sirius College.

When processing an application, if the school cannot immediately offer a spot due to no vacancy in the desired year level, the applicant may be placed on a waiting list. They will remain on the waiting list until the end of April. Should a vacancy become available before April 30th in the following year, the school may provide an offer if the applicant still wishes to proceed with their enrolment.

However, if there are no vacancies by the end of April in the following year and the applicant is interested in applying for the following year, they must submit an additional application.

The school reserves the right to not offer a spot for those placed on the waiting list.

There is no specific order for the waiting list. As vacancies open up, the next family on the waiting list will be offered a place.
