All Grade 8 students received their high school offer letter. If you have any questions, please contact your guidance counselor. High School Information
Every 8th Grader will fall into one of the two following categories:
1. You received 1 offer -no further action is necessary. OR
2. You received 2 offers (a Specialized High school as well as one of your 12 choices) - you must accept one offer and decline the other in your MySchool 's account.
At this point in time, it is not necessary to return your acceptance letter to your Guidance Counselor. Schools will contact you if you are accepted to the waitlist.
NEW - Waitlists This year, your offer letter also included a list of programs where you’ve been waitlisted. You were automatically added to the waitlist of any program that you listed higher on your application than the program where you received an offer. For example, if you got an offer to your third-choice program, you were waitlisted to your first-choice and second-choice programs.Schools will be in touch directly if a seat opens up and they can make you an offer.Waitlist offers will be made based on seat availability, admissions priorities, and admissions methods.You will be able to check your place on the waitlist for any school, in real time.Note: There is no Round 2 application. The specialized high schools do not have waitlists.
