Families can submit an application to each charter school they are interested in having their child attend. They can also fill out our free Common Online Charter School Application and apply to multiple participating schools at once.
If there are more applicants than seats available, applicants enter a random admissions lottery. Names that are not drawn in the lottery will be placed on a wait list.
