Beijing International Bilingual Academy

Beijing Haijia International Bilingual School offers a scholarship system primarily divided into two categories: the "High School Entrance Exam Scholarship" and the "In-School Scholarships," designed to attract and motivate outstanding students through tuition waivers. The following information is compiled based on the school's latest admissions policies:

1. High School Entrance Exam Scholarship (for new high school students)

This policy targets outstanding students transitioning from Grade 9 to Grade 10 who have taken the High School Entrance Exam. The highest award can cover two years of full tuition exemption.

Note: All students who meet the score threshold are usually required to take an additional assessment (interview/written test) organized by the school.

2. In-School Scholarships (Key Grades 5/8/10 & Special Talents)

These scholarships are mainly for students with outstanding academic performance or special talents within the school, requiring application and review.

   • Amount: Up to full tuition waiver (approximately RMB 120,000/year).
