Can I apply after Open Enrollment ends?
What are my chances of receiving an offer?
If the number of applicants during Open Enrollment exceeds the number of openings, (at any grade level) enrollment is determined by a lottery and waitlist. The Open Enrollment period for Phoenix International School of the Arts is NOT first come, first served, and only applications submitted during the Open Enrollment period are included in the lottery. Lottery drawings are held after the Open Enrollment period has ended, and you will receive the results directly from the school. The exact Open Enrollment period and lottery dates are determined on a year-to-year basis.

What are my chances of receiving an offer?
Each time an opening becomes available in a particular grade, the school will contact the parent/guardian of the next student on the waitlist for that grade and offer their child the open spot. If the parent/guardian declines the spot, it will be offered to the next student in line on the waitlist for that grade, and so on.

What are my chances of receiving an offer?
Yes, we continue accepting applications after Open Enrollment ends. However, only applications submitted during the Open Enrollment period are included in the lottery. Applications submitted after the Open Enrollment period has ended will be processed on a first come, first-served basis, following applications received during the Open Enrollment period. If a waitlist exists for the particular grade, the applicant will be placed on the waitlist according to the time and date of their submission, after applications included in the lottery.

What are my chances of receiving an offer?
There are many variables involved, so we cannot accurately predict chances of enrollment. Much depends on the decisions of other parents/guardians and the availability of seats in a particular grade. Offers are made throughout the spring, summer, and even into the next school year. Our teams work diligently to ensure that anytime a seat becomes available, an offer is made to the next student in line.
