Enrollment for the 2010-11 BCCS school year is now closed.
The Boston Collegiate student body is chosen at random through a publicly held, independent lottery, with no regard to a student's background or family situation.
Enrollment eligibility is met if:
- the student is a resident of Massachusetts;
- the student has successfully completed (or is expected to successfully complete) the grade preceding the grade to which he/she seeks admission; and
- both the student and his or her parent/guardian have signed the application stating that they understand the expectations of the school and agree to sign the contract to comply with the student code of conduct.
We accept applications during our enrollment period, which begins in January and runs through mid-March. If you would like to be added to our mailing list to receive an application, please email Nicole Toon, Boston Collegiate's Director of Diversity and Student Recruitment.
The enrollment process involves extensive, city-wide outreach, multiple information sessions, and broad application distribution and information sessions are held both at the school and in other communities.
The enrollment process concludes in mid-March with a publicly-held lottery to allocate available slots to applicants in the new 5th grade or on the waiting lists of the 6th, 7th, and 8th grades. The charter school law, M.G.L. c.79, s. 81, provides a sibling preference provision that gives siblings of enrolled students preference over non-siblings in enrollment. A full description of our enrollment policy is available at the school and is on file at the Charter School Office of the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education.
