The American School Foundation of Guadalajara, A.C.

Thank you for considering The American School Foundation of Guadalajara for your child's education. We are a community dedicated to the growth, learning, and development of each of our students with more than 115 years of experience in educational excellence.

ASFG welcomes all qualified applicants for available spaces from Nursery (Early Childhood) to 12th grade (High School). The school does not discriminate in offering access to its educational programs and activities on the basis of race, color, gender, nationality, religion, creed, sexual orientation, or family structure. As ASFG receives many more applications from qualified students than we have spaces available, our admission process is highly selective.

For entrance to Early Childhood (Preschool), we host two group information sessions each year, one in November and the second in January. This is the perfect opportunity to tour the Early Childhood area, visit classrooms and meet our teaching staff. We have no group sessions to provide information for entrance to other grade levels, so parents interested in learning more about our program should be in contact with the Admissions Office at admissions@asfg.edu.mx or scheduling an appointment here.

The deadline for priority applications to any given school year is in late January of the school year to which the student is applying. The Admissions Committee will make a recommendation about applications when all documentation has been received and evaluation has been completed.

Please see the Admissions Calendar below for more specific information.

After the complete application documentation has been received, our applicants are evaluated.

• Early childhood: in groups on January 23 and 24, 2025 with one extra day on February 27, 2025 in case you couldn't come on January.

• Grades Prefirst, 1st and 2nd: beginning on January 10, 2025 (previous appointment)

  • **Prefirst: mandatory second group assessment February 7th, 2025.

• Grades 3rd to 12th: on Saturdays from 9:00am – 1:00pm (previous appointment)

• International families: whenever possible, following the above schedule, but when this is not possible, please see the information at the Evaluations page. We will always do our best to accommodate these families.

  
  

• Late applications from local families: individually, by appointment, and only after complete application documentation has been received, always depending on space availability

• February 21 and 24, 2025 as space permits

• When a student is waitlisted, we hope they can wait until June 2025 for their decision, although we can often place students well before then. As our annual re-enrollment process is done in March, some spaces become available after that time.

• For late applications, the decisions are communicated 2 to 3 weeks after the evaluation is completed.

• March 3 – March 14,

  2025 for those who receive offers of spaces on February 21 and 24.

• All students who received their decision after February 25, 2025 must complete payments within 2 weeks after the decision was made.

• March 3- March 28, 2025 for all our ASFG re-enrolled students.
