Welcome

Welcome to Faith International Academy’s admissions page. We are delighted that you are seeking a Christian, international education in Davao. You can see the flowchart for the admissions process and other helpful information below.

Visa Requirements

Students enrolled at FIA are expected to have the proper legal documentation for residing in the Philippines. Various types of visas are acceptable, but those with a tourist visa must have additional documentation. Students below 18 years old with a tourist visa are required to apply for a Student Study Permit (SSP). The family is responsible for the cost, but FIA can assist with the process.

Categories

All families at FIA are classified as one of two categories, as determined by the definitions below. In situations where there is sufficient documentation, but category status is unclear, the Executive Team will make decisions based on the documentation and other circumstances in each case.

Christian Ministry Families
The student is the child of evangelical missionaries, full-time pastoral staff, full-time Bible/seminary students, or tentmakers.

Business Families

The student is the child of diplomat/embassy workers, business workers, and secular NGO workers. These are children of non-missionary parents who are willing to sign an agreement to cooperate with the distinctives of our program on a space-available basis.

FIA admits students of any race, color, national, and ethnic origins to all the rights, privileges, programs and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the school. It does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national, or ethnic origin in administration of its educational policies, financial aid programs, athletics, and other school-administered programs.
