BASIS Charter Schools use a lottery and waitlist system to determine enrollment when the number of applications received exceeds the number of available seats.
To participate in our enrollment lottery, families must apply during the Open Enrollment period. Open Enrollment happens in the fall for the following school year.
If you apply during Open Enrollment: If the number of applications received during Open Enrollment exceeds the number of openings (at any grade level), enrollment is determined by a lottery and waitlist. The Open Enrollment period for BASIS Charter Schools is NOT first-come, first-served. Instead, applicants are added to a lottery pool. To be included in the lottery, you need to apply by midnight on the last day of Open Enrollment. After the Open Enrollment period ends, lottery drawings are held. You will receive the results directly from the school(s) you applied to. Families that do not receive an enrollment offer from the lottery will be added to a waitlist.
If you apply outside of Open Enrollment: Applications submitted after the Open Enrollment period has ended will be added to a waitlist and processed on a first-come, first-served basis, following any applications received during Open Enrollment. Schools will continue to make offers to waitlisted applicants as seats become available. There is not a lottery for applications submitted outside of Open Enrollment.
Please note that the exact Open Enrollment dates and lottery dates are determined on a year-to-year basis.
We recommend completing your application during the Open Enrollment period so you can be included in our random lottery if the number of applicants exceeds the number of available seats.

Yes. You may select more than one BASIS Charter School campus when submitting an application. Each school has a separate waitlist, and you can be on multiple waitlists at once.
If a student receives an enrollment offer, then the sibling(s) of that student will be granted sibling priority once the offer is accepted and the online registration form is submitted for the admitted student. This priority does not guarantee a seat, but it does improve the sibling’s placement on the waitlist and increases the chance of receiving an enrollment offer. We understand that managing multiple schedules and schools in a household can be challenging and our schools do their best to make offers to siblings of admitted students when space is available.
You may notice fluctuations in your student’s waitlist number. This is a fairly common occurrence, especially during peak times of enrollment, and should not be a cause for concern. Even if your student’s waitlist number is high following the lottery, things can change rapidly.
Yes. A current BASIS Charter School student may request a transfer to ONE specific BASIS Charter School campus. To be eligible for a transfer priority, students must submit an application and complete a transfer request form for their preferred campus. A student must complete a year at their current BASIS Charter School campus to receive the transfer priority. Transfer priority does not guarantee enrollment, but rather places the transfer student in a prioritized position on the waitlist for their desired BASIS Charter School campus.
Applications submitted during the Open Enrollment period will receive results by the end of the day on the published lottery date (typically in mid-January). Applications submitted after Open Enrollment will receive results within 2–3 days.
Applicants who are offered enrollment at a BASIS Charter School will be provided with instructions for accepting the offer, completing the online registration form, and submitting registration documents to the school.
Applicants who are not offered enrollment will be placed on a waitlist. Waitlisted applications still have a chance of receiving an offer, since we continue to make offers throughout the spring, summer, and even into the beginning of the school year as seats become available.
