We recommend applying as early as possible to secure a spot for your child, as spaces can fill up quickly. Ideally, applications should be submitted 3 to 6 months before the camp start date. This allows ample time for visa processing, preparation, and any additional paperwork. Early application also gives you priority in selecting session dates and ensures time for your child to get familiar with camp expectations.
