Growing with NCC: Let's get started

At Nunawading Christian College, the enrolment process is designed to ensure that every prospective student feels welcomed and supported.

To begin the journey with us, all families will have the opportunity to meet our friendly enrolment team. During this process, we will assess the student's suitability and readiness for our school community.

Our enrolment process typically begins 1-2 years before your preferred entry time.

  • Prep - interviews commence in Term 1 (March or earlier) the year before entry. (It is a requirement for enrolment at NCC that a student has turned 5 before January the year they start Prep.)
  • Year 7 - interviews commence early in Term 2, when the prospective student is in Year 5.

We also welcome applications for other year levels, however acceptance is subject to availability and meeting our standard criteria. We commence interviews for the following year from Term 2, sending out offers once Term 3 has commenced and we know what the availability is for the following year.

Below, we've compiled a step-by-step guide for our enrolment process.

Process

Below is our simple 7-step process for how to enrol your child at Nunawading Christian College

Our Enrolment team works hard to provide the best possible service to our future families. They are contactable by calling 9878 3555 (extension 1) during school hours, or by emailing enrolments@nunawading.vic.edu.au. You can expect a response in a timely manner.

The application process is contactless, with an online form through which you can submit scanned or photographed copies of the required documents, and the enrolment acceptance paperwork is sent to you digitally.

1. Tour

Tours can be booked HERE and are a great way for you and your child to see our School at Work. If you would like to ask about availability or some other questions before scheduling a tour, feel free to call the Enrolment team on 9877 3555 (extension 1) or via email on enrolments@nunawading.vic.edu.au.

2. Apply

Complete an online application for enrolment, including the required documents. A $250 per family, non-refundable application fee completes this process.

Please Note: A non-refundable $250 processing fee is payable per enrolment application. This is separate from school fees, which can be found here.

Submitting an application does not guarantee your child a place; it does ensure your child is added to our waiting list, to be considered for your preferred year of entry.

3. Wait

You will receive confirmation of receipt of your application and further advice depending on your situation: whether it is time to proceed to interview for you and your child, or if the application will be put on file until the appropriate time, in which case we will also notify you of when to expect to hear from us.

Please understand that waitlist preferences may be given to siblings of current students, ELC students or children of alumni.

4. Interview

Depending on the year of entry, your child’s placement on the waitlist and availability of a place, you will be contacted to arrange an interview with yourself and your child.

If it has been some time since completing the application form, you will be asked to again provide the two most recent reports, NAPLAN results or any other relevant reports.

Please note that for Year 7 entry we do not interview students below Year 5 and for Prep, we interview in the year before school entry.

5. Offer

Following your family’s interview, the school may offer a place to your child. If an offer is made, we will ask for your acceptance of confirmation, the return of completed paperwork, and payment of a $2,000 commitment fee per child which is due within 2 weeks of the offer being made. (This fee will be credited against fees for the second term following commencement.)

It is essential that you are prompt in returning the acceptance and paying the commitment fee, as once past the due date, the next round of offers will be sent out.

6. Confirm

Once your paperwork has been returned, and the fee has been received, our enrolment department will let you know that your child’s enrolment has been confirmed. Congratulations!

7. Welcome

We will send details of everything you need to know about joining our college community with plenty of time before your child begins at Nunawading Christian College.

You will also be placed on our email list so you can receive the school's monthly newsletter and stay up to date with what is happening at NCC.

Throughout the entire process our Enrolment Department is here to help, so please do not hesitate to contact the enrolment officer at any time if you have any questions or concerns.
