Admissions Timeline
January 2nd – January 31st: Initial Application Period
All interested prospective students must apply during this time period in order to be included in the lottery.
February 2nd: Lottery (Virtual via Zoom) at 10 AM
If the number of applicants during the Initial Application Period exceeds the number of spaces available in any grade, ICSAtlanta will ensure that such applicants have an equal chance of being admitted through an electronic, random-selection lottery. Please reference our school's calendar (on our homepage) for the Zoom link for the lottery.
February-September: Open Enrollment
Applications will continue to be accepted and added to the end of the waitlist. Admissions and enrollment will continue on a rolling basis as space permits until enrollment is closed.
Alternate Way to Apply
If you are unable to apply for admission online, you may complete this application, and mail or bring it to the front desk of either campus (see address information below) during the enrollment period. Please note that applications will only be accepted for open grades. You may obtain a printed copy of the application at the front desk of either campus during the enrollment period.
Language Track Policy
Every new student at ICSAtlanta is assigned a language track: French, German, Mandarin, or Spanish. ICSAtlanta makes every effort to grant students their first-choice language track; however, this is not always possible.
Please see our Admissions & Lottery Procedures below for more specific information.
PLEASE NOTE:
-
There will be no language-specific waitlists.
-
Due to the nature of our dual language immersion program, we do not allow for changes in language tracks after enrollment (within the same year or from one year to the next).
Helpful Information
-
Choosing a school for your child is a very personal decision, and no one knows your child better than you do! Since ICSAtlanta offers dual language immersion (DLI), ensure that your child will be ready to learn and thrive in an environment where he or she is challenged in another language.
-
DLI requires patience, diligence, and a willingness to commit to the long-term benefits of DLI.
-
DLI programs provide many cognitive benefits for students – regardless of the language! Be open to any language track. Parents need not speak or understand the language their child is learning.
Before You Apply
Applicants for kindergarten must be 5 years old on or before September 1st of their kindergarten year.
Applicants for 1st grade must be 6 years old on or before September 1st of their 1st grade year.
