Because mastering bilingualism is a complex, lengthy process, we urge families to apply for admission as early as possible in their children’s education. Every year we have 32 spaces available in Nursery, 8 spaces in Pre-Kindergarten, 20 spaces in Kindergarten. Spaces in Grades 1 through 12 vary year to year, depending on attrition.
FASNY accepts non-French speakers in Nursery (3 year-old program) and Pre-Kindergarten (4 year-old program). However, from Kindergarten through 12th grade, children must demonstrate the ability to do grade level work in French in order to be admitted.
Non-English-speaking students can be admitted to the School at any grade level, as English as a Second Language instruction is available throughout the curriculum.
Applicants for the 2013-2014 Nursery class must have been born by December 31, 2010 and must be completely toilet-trained before the school year begins.

The French-American School of New York is a day School, not a boarding School. FASNY does not enroll applicants wishing to pursue their last years of High School in New York without their families.
Although FASNY does not directly organize transportation to and from school, our student population is entitled to have busing services provided by most school districts. (Busing regulations are different for each school district). The school district, age of the student, and distance from the house to FASNY’s campus (es) determine a child’s eligibility.
