Starting today, the first phase of online application for admission to the 10th grade in state high schools of the Republic of Armenia has begun, which is intended for students with priority status.

In this phase, the following can apply:

1. Children who have a brother or sister studying in the same school,

2. Children of the staff of the school,

3. Children from the following groups living within the pedestrian accessibility radius from the school to home, as defined by the legislation of the Republic of Armenia:

- Children from families included in the family vulnerability assessment system or families with a monthly income below 160% of the threshold value that grants the right to receive social assistance for one household member, as established by the Law on "State Benefits" and the decision of the Government of the Republic of Armenia, and children from families recognized as socially vulnerable according to the family vulnerability assessment procedure,

- Children under guardianship,

- Children with disabilities or children of parents with disabilities.

Children of state system employees who have been relocated to another settlement for at least 6 months due to internal assignments in the territory of the Republic of Armenia can also benefit from the privilege if the parent (or their legal representative) has sent an application and relevant documents to the Ministry of Education, Science, Culture and Sports electronic address (secretariat@escs.am) before the start of the application period on July 20.

The mentioned privileges apply to both Armenian and Russian language instruction classes. The system will be open for those with privileges until August 2, inclusive, at 24:00. After this deadline, the admission application for high school will be conducted on a general basis in the second phase.

Second phase:

On August 4, starting at 09:00, the application process for 10th graders will be conducted on a general basis for Armenian language instruction classes, including for foreign citizens, dual citizens, and stateless persons (and their legal representatives). Applications will also be accepted for students whose one parent belongs to any of the mentioned groups, while the other is a citizen of the Republic of Armenia. The system is also open for children belonging to national minorities whose parents wish to enroll them in Armenian language instruction classes.

Application for at least one child from a group of siblings (twins, triplets, quadruplets, etc.) in any public educational institution ensures the admission of the other children to the same institution, regardless of the number of licensed places available.

On August 11, starting at 09:00, applications will also be accepted for the following groups in Russian language instruction classes at the parents' choice:

- Foreign citizens,

- Dual citizens,

- Stateless persons (and their legal representatives),

- Children belonging to national minorities,

- When one of the parents is a citizen of the Republic of Armenia.

There is no need to apply in schools where admission will be conducted according to established internal procedures:

- Specialized schools,

- Schools operating under higher educational institutions,

- "Artificial Intelligence" generation classes in general education schools,

- Secondary schools or gymnasiums where students will be transferred to the third level of education of the same educational institution upon the parent's request.

The online application is carried out in two steps.

Step 1 – Log in to the platform https://my.emis.am and open your user page. Detailed steps for opening the page are provided in the "Registration at my.emis.am" video guide.

Step 2 – If you have already completed the identification and have your page on the https://my.emis.am platform, wait for the start of the application to select the school. The application steps are presented in the "Application in High School" video guide.

Taking into account that registration is time-consuming, we once again recommend registering and completing identification in the system before the start of the application, after which it will be possible to enroll your child in your preferred school.

At the same time, we inform you that it is not possible to log into the system simultaneously from different devices using the same account and enroll a child, so we urge you to carry out the application from one account, using one computer.

The entire process of application, submitting a request to the school director, and signing a contract with the school is digitized and can be carried out in the Education Management Information System through the page created by the parent.

Application for admission to high school will continue throughout the academic year.
