7 High School Admissions TRUTHS

1 Applying to 12 programs makes it more likely you'll receive an offer to a program of your choice.

True!

96% of students who listed 12 programs received an offer in Round 1 last year.

TIP Use this High School Directory to create a broad list of choices based on your interests.

2 It is crucial to list program choices in your true order of preference.

True!

High schools will not see your application choice order--they don't know if you list them as your first choice or your last.

TIP Make sure to submit a balanced application that includes your "reach", "target", and "likely-match" program choices.

3 For some schools, showing interest means signing in at the school's table at a High School Fair or at a school's Open House or Information Session.

True!

Limited Unscreened and some other admissions methods give priority to students who show interest in the school.

TIP When signing in, write your name and contact information clearly.

4 You can still apply to Screened or Audition programs if your academic record falls below the Selection Criteria ranges shown on its school page.

True!

The range of grades and test scores listed in a program's Selection Criteria reflects how a school ranked applicants to

that program last year. These ranges may vary year-to-year.

TIP Don't treat Selection Criteria grades and test scores as cutoffs. If your academic record falls below the listed range, you can still apply but you should consider this a "reach" program on your application and limit the number of "reach" programs you include in your list of 12 ranked programs.

5 English Language Learners (ELL) can apply to all programs in this High School Directory.

True!

All high schools must provide ELL services for students. Read Section 9.2 in this Directory to learn about three different ELL service delivery models offered in New York City public high schools.

TIP There are programs designed to serve students who are learning English. These programs admit students according to home language, years in this country, or English proficiency.

6 Students with Disabilities (SWD) can apply to all programs in this High School Directory or School Finder.

True!

All high schools must provide services for Students with Disabilities.

TIP On each school page, you can find each program's SWD seat availability last year.

7 You do not have to register for the Specialized High Schools Admissions Test (SHSAT) if you plan on auditioning for Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School.

True!

Although LaGuardia High School is one of the nine specialized high schools, it is not a testing school.

TIP Read the Specialized High Schools Student Handbook to help prepare for auditions. Register for auditions and the SHSAT by mid-October!

As an Expeditionary Learning school, our approach to curriculum connects learning to real-world issues. Our Learning Expeditions and field visits get students out of the classroom and into the practice of investigating solutions to real-world problems. Our Expeditionary Learning emphasis invests students in their community, teaches them the value of leadership and service, and establishes a solid academic base from which students can launch careers in fields such as science, government, medicine, law, research technology, robotics, and education. Character development is our foundation; students' habits of work and learning are service, trust, accountability, and respect (STAR).
