Oberoi International School, often shortened to OIS, is one of the established international names families weigh when relocating to the western suburbs, and it appears on our Mumbai city hub and the Mumbai IB schools hub. Instituted in 2008 at Oberoi Garden City in Goregaon East, it teaches from Nursery to Grade 12 and is authorised to run all three programmes of the International Baccalaureate, making it a full IB Continuum school rather than a Diploma only provider. It sits firmly in the premium band of the city.
This profile is an independent reference page. GlobalSchoolGuide does not accept payment for coverage, and Oberoi International School appears here because it is a real school relocating families ask about, not because it paid to be listed. We researched the facts below from the school and public sources at the time of writing, and mark anything we could not confirm as not published.
At a glance
Curriculum and academics
Oberoi International School is one of the few Mumbai schools authorised to deliver the entire IB pathway in one place. The Primary Years Programme runs from Nursery to Grade 5 and builds an inquiry led foundation, the Middle Years Programme covers Grade 6 to 10 with its interdisciplinary units and personal project, and the two year IB Diploma Programme in grades 11 and 12 leads to university entry. A child can therefore move from early years to the Diploma without changing system, which is part of the appeal for internationally mobile families who value continuity.
Both campuses are authorised IB Continuum schools, and the original Oberoi Garden City campus is accredited by the Council of International Schools and the New England Association of Schools and Colleges, the international marks of quality assurance. The Diploma route gives a recognised path to selective universities in India, the United Kingdom, the United States and beyond. Families weighing the choice can read our IB curriculum guide to see how the Primary Years, Middle Years and Diploma programmes connect and who they suit.

Oberoi International School fees
Oberoi International School sits in the premium band on our Mumbai international school fees guide, where the top international schools run broadly from INR 11 to 18 lakh a year. Tuition rises through the school, with the Middle Years and Diploma grades carrying the highest cost. Treat published figures as bands rather than a quote and confirm the current schedule with the school, since tuition is revised every year.
Tuition is only part of the budget. Expect a one time admission charge payable when a place is taken, and many international schools in the city also ask for a development or building contribution. Examination fees for the IB Diploma fall due in the senior years and are billed separately, and optional school transport across the suburbs, materials and trips add to the annual figure. Use the compare tool to set the full cost against other shortlisted schools rather than the headline tuition alone.
Admissions
Oberoi International School follows the Indian academic year, and the principal entry points are at the Nursery and early primary stages, where most places are offered. The school runs a paperless process that begins with an online enquiry, followed by a teacher interaction for Primary Years applicants and an online assessment for older children joining the Middle Years or the Diploma, alongside the standard documentation and a record of prior schooling.
Places in established year groups depend on a child leaving, so mid year and later entry cannot be relied upon, particularly into the Diploma where group sizes are set. Families relocating to Mumbai with their sights on Oberoi should apply as early as possible and ask the admissions team directly about availability in the grade they need and which of the two campuses has space.
Location and who goes there
The original campus sits within Oberoi Garden City in Goregaon East, a planned mixed use development off the Western Express Highway, and the second campus opened in 2017 on the Jogeshwari Vikhroli Link Road that connects the western and eastern suburbs. Both sit in the corridor that has drawn corporate offices and newer residential towers, which makes the school convenient for families settling in the central and northern western suburbs rather than the older south of the city.
The intake mixes Indian families working in the surrounding business district with expatriate and returning Indian households, with many living in Goregaon, Andheri, Powai and the suburbs along the link road within reach of the campuses.
