Rollover

If a student is not offered a position for the current school year, parents/guardians have the option to roll the application over to the following year if the application is eligible. If parents/guardians elect to rollover the student(s) application, they will not have to reapply for the next school year. These rollover applications will be ahead of new, incoming, non-prioritized applications. It is crucial that families do not miss the rollover period to ensure the student’s application is moved to the next year’s waitlist.

Open Enrollment

Open Enrollment is when families complete a new online application to selected school/s that they are not currently attending and would like to receive an offer of enrollment. Once the Open Enrollment period is completed, all applications submitted will be included in the Great Hearts Lottery.

Lottery

Any application submitted during the open enrollment period is eligible for a lottery. When academies receive more applications then there are seats available, an academy/grade independent lottery is held to determine the waitlist order. The lottery assigns a random number to each application and then the applications are ordered on the waitlist based on the lottery number, application type, and priority status.

Offers and Registration

After the Lottery, each Great Hearts academy will extend offers to families according to their number on the waitlist and fill any available seats for the next school year. Offers are sent in writing and families are given a deadline to accept their offer and complete registration.

Students who are in exit grades at an academy do not fill out re-enrollment paperwork, but will need to fill out a new enrollment application to attend another Great Hearts Academy.
