Frequently asked questions
How do I apply for Grade 1 admission 2083 at Himalaya College?
How long is the Grade 1 program?
What is the age requirement for Nursery, LKG, UKG, and Grade 1?
A child should generally be around 3 years old for Nursery, 4 for LKG, and 5 for UKG, with Grade 1 typically starting at age 6. These are approximate benchmarks, and the admissions team may look at a child's readiness alongside age when making a placement decision. Parents unsure which level fits their child are welcome to discuss it directly with the school before applying.
What subjects do students study in Primary level (Grade 1 to 5)?
Primary students study English, Nepali, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, Computer, and Health/Physical Education, following the national curriculum for Basic Level. Moral education and creative subjects such as art are also part of the weekly routine. The aim through these years is to build solid reading, writing, and number skills before subjects get more technical from Grade 6.
What happens after Grade 10 and the SEE?
Once a student completes Grade 10 and appears for the SEE, they move on to +2 (Grade 11 and 12), choosing a stream such as Science, Management, or Humanities based on their SEE results and interests. Students who have studied at Himalaya College through the school section can continue directly into the college's +2 programs, which makes the transition smoother since teachers already know the student's academic history. Families are also free to apply elsewhere for +2 if that fits their plans better.
What is the fee for Grade 1?
Does Himalaya College offer scholarships?
Yes. Students who rank first, second or third in the final examination are entitled to full or partial scholarships. Scholarships are also awarded on a merit basis every year to financially underprivileged students.
