Entrance Policies

Razi School accepts students in Prekindergarten through 12th grade, space permitting.

PreKindergarten (3K & UPK) and Kindergarten Admissions

3K and Prekindergarten applicants must be 3 and 4 years old (respectively) by December 31st of the year of enrollment

Kindergarten applicants must be 5 years old by December 31st of the year of enrollment

Acceptance and Grade Placement

Decisions on admission to Razi School are made by the administration as soon as all relevant information has been received. To be eligible for admission, the student must demonstrate academic abilities, which are compatible with the educational standard of Razi School. Decisions made by the administration are communicated to the parents as promptly as possible.

Grade placement in Razi School is the sole responsibility of the school, as are teacher and class designations. If no place is available due to a full class, the applicant will be placed on the waitlist.

Health Requirements

Proof of immunization and recent PPD (regardless if child received BCG) must be presented to the school before the student is allowed to attend class. Per New York City health regulations, students in Prekindergarten through First grade and any students transferring to Razi School from a school outside of New York City must have the school medical form completed and signed by a physician prior to attending class. All students must be immunized according to the New York State health requirements.

Financial Requirements

Once a child has been accepted, the non-refundable tuition deposit and the non-refundable registration fee are due. Before a student is allowed to attend class, the school must receive all due tuition and fees.

Re-registration

Re-registration occurs March-April each year. Failure to re-register at the time may result in a possible loss of a place for your child for the following academic year

Transfer to Razi School

School in the US

If your child is attending a school in the US, the Admissions Office will request academic information and end-of-year grades directly from the previous school. To do so you must provide 1) the complete mailing address of the student's current school, 2) A signed record request form from Razi School

School outside of the US

If your child is attending a school outside the US, the previous school is required to mail an official transcript for at least the part two years of academic study to the Admissions Office of Razi School. The official records should include copies of any national examinations. Teacher or headmaster comments are desirable.
