Basically he told them but they didn't really believe he would manage to get in. They probably even waved him goodbye on the airship, and said "Sure, we don't mind you taking Croceas Mors." because they expected him to fail initiation and come back home afterwards. So him passing and getting into the school was pretty much more than they ever expected of him. I'm still not entirely sure that line should be interpreted that straight.... it always sounded to me like they were being sarcastic or didn't believe he was actually going at all, and possibly were focused on something else... like his Sisters or work... yet another failure of the timeskip tbh...(it would have been nice to see something like a note from his parents in a scene like his Aura-slash training in V4 next to his scroll.
