New Student Waitlist (2025-2026)

Thank you for your interest in Gurukul. Please review the information below.

Registration of your child in Gurukul classes requires following these 3 steps:

1. Add your child to the waitlist.
2. Attend "New Parent Orientation" meeting.
3. Complete registration formalities and pay contribution.

1. Add your child to the waitlist

Adding your child to waitlist is the first step to express your intent to register your child in Gurukul classes. It does not guarantee your child's admission but places your child on a waitlist for next year's admission. The date and time of joining the waitlist does not set the priority date of registration. When registration opens, all waitlisted children will have an equal opportunity to compete for the spots available in Gurukul classes. Gurukul will notify you of the "New Parent Orientation" date and other details via email.

Waitlist information helps Gurukul plan various resources to register a maximum number of students and ensures:

• The child is 5 years or older by August 31st of year of admission.​
• Your family profile is complete so that you can be notified about registration steps.
• Final registration is a just a simple step of making payment.​

2. Attend "New Parent Orientation" meeting ​

Gurukul holds an orientation session for all new parents to provide them with information about how Gurukul operates, the role of parent volunteers in running Gurukul, and the remaining process to complete registration. You will be notified of this meeting in advance using the email addresses provided in the waitlist. This meeting is generally held in Feb/March timeframe.​

3. Complete registration formalities and pay contribution

The total number of students admitted depends on following factors:​

• Number of current students registered​
• Available teachers (returning and new) ​
• Available classrooms​

Once we have all this information, we will open registration by notifying you via email to complete the registration around April/May in following order:​

• Current Gurukul students and their siblings will register first.​
• Next, children of new families who attend New Parent Orientation, sign up to be a teacher, attend at least two in-class teacher training sessions and commit to teaching for the whole year.​
• After this, remaining waitlisted families register on a first come first served basis.​

Registration completes as soon as you make the contribution payment and receive a confirmation email and will close when all the available spots are filled. ​

Important: Email is the only way of communication for registration so please provide us with an active email address which your family checks regularly. ​
