Joining Mary Bilingual Comprehensive High School is simple and transparent. Applications open on 1 February and close on 30 April each year. To start, fill the online form, upload your last report card and pay the 5 000 FCFA entrance-exam fee. Every candidate then sits our entrance test on 15 May: a short English and French paper, a maths paper and a 15-minute interview. We publish the list of accepted students on 1 June; if your name is on it, you complete the medical form, pay the registration fee and receive your admission pack.

We accept students into Form 1, Form 3 and Lower Sixth. Day-school fees are moderate depending on the program. Merit scholarships and need-based aid are available—just tick the box on the application. Transfer and international students are welcome; we place you in the right class after a quick assessment.
