TASIS The American School in Switzerland

They sent a child here for a summer program. We got into the camp on the second attempt. We applied in February, but we were told that there were no more places! They put me on a waiting list, and in April the place appeared due to the fact that someone refused. The program was wonderful, a lot of sports and interesting activities. We visited many interesting places throughout Switzerland. The child especially liked the excursion to Zurich. We took a regular course in learning English, because we wanted a language camp, but in general there are many other options at school.

In 2019, my son enrolled here to study in the 10th grade. We moved to Lugano a year earlier, so the school was known to us and we planned to enter here. For all the time of study, we were not disappointed at school. A really good level of training and support for children. They are well prepared for admission to universities, and the curator helps with the selection of a program not only in Switzerland, but also in other countries. You can apply to any number of universities, and they will help with this. The son decided to enter American and Canadian universities.

Hello, Do students have to live in the school? I’m thinking of sending my boy to your school but will only go for the day. Is the yearly cost different for those students who don’t live in the school? Thank you, Sasha

I want to say a huge thank you to the school management for being able to accept us from the middle of the year to the 11th grade program. Before that, I had the experience of studying at another American school in Switzerland, and we didn't like it there at all. The program was weak and the teachers were not professionals. We turned to the SMPAS for help in urgently transferring the child to another school. Manager Ilya suggested considering TASIS. Since most of the documents were already ready, the enrollment process was fast. Special thanks to our manager for his help with filling out the forms, there will be quite a lot of them. The teachers at TASIS are excellent and very attentive to foreign children. The child really came to life after a bad experience in the first school and feels comfortable here.

Very good school. Great location on a hill, from anywhere on campus the view is simply stunning! In addition to the American program, there is also IB, and you can finally choose the option of the training program immediately before moving to the 11th grade, it is not necessary to do this in high school. A very beautiful shape that children like.
