At Somerset College, we aim to empower our students to become critical and creative thinkers; the solution-seekers in a rapid ly changing world. Our commitment to a relevant and future-focused education finds expression not only in the academic excellence of both the Independent Examinations Board and the Cambridge AS and A level curriculums, but also in our innovative project-based ESTEAM programme (Entrepreneurship, Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Mathematics).

Please note that a non-refundable application fee of R500 is payable upon submission of the application form. We do not accept students who are entering Grade 11 or 12. Please note the school requires written consent from both parents/guardians of a child wanting admission into Somerset College.
Please be aware that students wanting to enter the Preparatory School are evaluated in an interview situation, and Senior School students are required to write an Entrance Assessment (in Mathematics and English).
