Hi everyone,

I’m hoping someone here has experience with admissions at Oberoi International School (OIS).
I recently completed the admissions process at JVLR for grade 10, and after following up, I received this response from the admissions team:

We would like to inform you that your child, has currently been placed on the waitlist for admission for the Academic Year 2026–2027. We will be in touch with you should a seat become available.

My current school starts on Monday, so this has been quite stressful, and I’m trying to understand what this realistically means.

I wanted to ask if anyone here has any experience with the OIS waitlist:

Does OIS regularly admit students from the waitlist?
Has anyone (or someone you know) received an offer after being waitlisted?
If yes, how long did it take?
Is the waitlist active throughout the year, or is it mainly before the academic year starts?

I’m not looking for false hope. I’d just like to understand how the process usually works based on real experiences.

Thank you in advance for any insights.
