LOTTERY INFORMATION
We are still accepting application in select grades for immediate enrollment for the 2022-2023 school year. Connect with our Admissions Team by calling 646-793-6320 or email admissions@cityschoolofthearts.org
WE'RE REQUIRED BY NEW YORK STATE LAW TO HAVE A LOTTERY-BASED ADMISSIONS PROCESS.
And that's 100% aligned with our belief that all students have the right to a high-quality arts-based education. Our lottery ensures that applicants are selected at random. There is no audition, portfolio or interview. Students not accepted in the lottery will be placed on our waiting list for spaces that may become available in the future. City School of the Arts will give first preference to students who reside in our district. Because we believe in the power of a progressive, arts-integrated program for all students, we will also give preference to students who are classified as "at risk of academic failure." We can increase the chances of enrolling this population in compliance with state law by giving preferences to students eligible for free and reduced lunch and English Language Learners.
