Is Woodstock School open to Indian students?

Yes, absolutely. Woodstock School welcomes Indian students and has done so throughout its 172-year history. Indian students are well represented within the Woodstock community, alongside students from more than 30 other countries.
The school is a private institution with Indian Christian Minority Status, and it operates fully within Indian law. Indian and international applicants go through the same admissions process. Indian students apply through the same portal, are assessed by the same criteria, and once enrolled, are part of the same diverse residential community as students from every other country represented at the school.
For Indian families, there are a few important practical points to understand. The curriculum is not CBSE or CISCE. Woodstock follows the American High School Diploma and the IB, which means graduates will apply to universities with a different kind of academic record than most Indian board students. For students considering universities in the US, UK, or other international destinations, this can be a significant advantage. For those focused exclusively on Indian university entry, the curriculum fit should be carefully considered before applying.
Indian students interested in financial assistance may also wish to explore Woodstock’s Scholars for Peace programme.
