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. 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.
Disclaimer: For questions regarding the lottery and waitlist process in Washington, DC, please see the FAQ at MySchoolDC.org
We recommend applying during the Open Enrollment period so you can be included in our enrollment lottery if the number of applicants exceeds the number of available seats. This is your best chance of securing a seat for your child. However, we continue to accept applications throughout the year, even after the Open Enrollment window has ended.
Please note that the exact Open Enrollment dates and lottery dates are determined on a year-to-year basis. Join our interest list to receive Open Enrollment updates for your school of interest.
