For Prospective 6th Grade Parents: Middle School Admission Information
TODAY, April 9th, 2025, New York City Middle School Offers are released for the upcoming school year.
All applicants get a middle school offer; most students get an offer to attend one of the programs ranked on their middle school application, but it is not guaranteed. Your child's offer letter also includes a list of programs where they’ve been waitlisted.
- Your child is automatically on the waitlist for any program that you listed higher on their application than the program where they received an offer. For example, if your child received an offer to your third-choice program, they are automatically waitlisted at your first-choice and second-choice programs.
- After initial offers are made and while waitlists are open, you can add your child to additional waitlists. (However, please note that your child's best chance of getting an offer to any program is to include it as a choice on their original application.)
- You can also check your child's place on the waitlist for any school, in real time.
- Waitlist offers are made based on seat availability, as well as the same admissions priorities and admissions methods described on this page and detailed in MySchools.
- Schools will be in touch directly if a seat opens up and they can make your child a waitlist offer.
Learn more on our Waitlists page and by watching the tutorial that follows. https://www.schools.nyc.gov/enrollment/enroll-grade-by-grade/middle-school
Here's a breakdown of the middle school admissions process in NYC for the 2025-2026 school year:- Application Opens: The middle school application opened on October 15, 2024.
- Application Closes: The application closed on December 20, 2024.
- Offer Release: Offers are released today, April 9, 2025.
