Greetings,

I have just been offered a job with Qatar Airways and was wondering if anybody could provide some information on how difficult it is to be able to enroll kids in the American School of Doha mid school year in other words in the semester starting in January.

Appreciate any information that you can provide.

Thanks and hope tp hear from some of you soon

Cheers

Actually mid term is pretty much the only way to get into ASD if you are not Qatari, work for one of the Sponsors, having a sibling already attending or U.S. Military.  Those listed above have first priority at the beginning of the year.  After that everyone else has a chance.  (That's if you pass the assessment test)Contact them ASAP and get on the list.

ASD is a school that is in high demand.  It may be possible to get in mid-term, but not likely.  Contact them now to find out.  There are other excellent American style schools in Doha, such as the DeBakey High School that you could also consider.

if you have cash or your company will pay for you.

However, you'll need to check if you can join right now as it's too tight for now.

Best contact them directly - it may depend on which grade your child is in - but getting into a good school in Doha is often very difficult and a very long waiting list.
