The academic year at OWIS begins in August and concludes in July. However, prospective students can apply for admission at any point during the school year. Admission into the school is dependent on the student's overall application as well as the availability within their particular grade level.
Any student who is interested in attending school at OWIS must follow the steps of the application process and complete each portion of the application form in order for their admission to be considered.

We toured three other schools prior to OWIS. When we visited, Kristiina was our guide. Her demeanour, level of calm, extensive knowledge of the school, staff, teachers and curriculum was impressive. During the tour, our daughter let my hand go to walk with Kristiina (the first time that’s happened during a tour). Watching her level of comfort, greeting other kids and teachers and her smiles confirmed our thought that this was the school for our children. We brought our son a few weeks later and he too, was comfortable and seemed content. The facilities were commendable as well.
