Enrollment Process

 

Step One: Application of Interest/Intent to Enroll

In order to apply to Ivy Academia, a prospective family must apply using the Application of Interest/Intent to Enroll form. Applications of Interest enable the prospective student(s) to be placed directly onto our acceptance list or on our waiting list. 

 

Step Two:  Public Lottery* (if necessary in Spring of the prior school year)

Following open enrollment which concludes on the last Friday of February, applications shall be counted to determine whether any grade level has received more applications than availability. In the event that this happens, the Charter School will hold a public random lottery to determine enrollment for the impacted grade level(s), with the exception of existing students of Ivy Academia, who are guaranteed enrollment in the following school year.

 

In the event that the number of applications of interest exceeds capacity at any grade level, the random, public random lottery will be held on a date and location that is published throughout the District and surrounding area.

 

The Public Random Lottery is held annually on the first Wednesday of March on Zoom and in the Conference Room.  You need NOT be present for admission.
