Availability & Wait Pools
The application is the first step of the admissions process and does not guarantee enrollment. Admission is based upon an applicant’s ability to meet all admissions criteria as well as space becoming available. Wait Pools will be started when a grade reaches capacity. Admissions documentation is required for your wait pool application to be considered complete. If a spot becomes available, we will contact you to continue processing your wait pool application (which will include ISEE admissions testing).
Please note, that we utilize a wait pool, rather than a waitlist, thus the order in which you submit is not of significance. During the winter and spring months, there is sometimes movement in our enrollment numbers and many students are accepted from wait pools! Your wait pool application is relevant for the school year you are applying for, it does not roll over.

If you are applying for LEAP, space must be available both in the classroom as well as in the LEAP program in order for a student to continue in the admissions process. Until space is available in both, the application will remain in the wait pool. The admissions process will determine if a student is a qualified candidate for our LEAP program.
