Attention: Elementary and high school selective enrollment waitlists for the 2023-24 school year are now closed.

Selective enrollment programs will no longer be extending waitlist offers for the current 2023-24 school year.

Choice school program waitlists for the 2023-24 school year will remain open until January 2024.
Attention 8th graders! The HSAT will take place on October 11, 2023 for current CPS students, and October 14, 15, or 21, 2023 for students not currently enrolled at CPS.

Current CPS students do not need to register for the HSAT. They will take the exam at school during the school day. Students not currently enrolled at a CPS school will need to register for the HSAT within the GoCPS application by October 6, 2023.
Still looking for a 23-24 placement? The Rolling Waitlist is still open for both high school and elementary school!

Haven’t started an application? Click here to register. (Students who applied in the fall of 2022 do not need to register!)
