Enrollment Information

No.  Westgate does not require any sort of testing or proof of GT identification.  If a student has cognitive testing or a current ALP, we will collect that information during the enrollment process along with the other necessary paperwork and records.

Each year, kindergarten and 9^th grade will be filled to capacity with new applications.  For all other grades, the number of seats will vary based on the number of current students not returning for the following year.

No.  If one sibling is offered a seat and that seat is accepted, any additional siblings will be moved to the sibling wait pool.  Seat offers from the sibling wait pools will be offered first based on availability.

You will need to fill out a separate application for each student that is applying to Westgate.  On each individual application, you will list the names of the additional students applying so the system can link them together as siblings.

You will receive an email and text message with the results of the lottery as soon as it is run in February.  Please make sure that your SchoolMint settings are updated to receive text messages AND emails.  Also check your spam folder to ensure that emails are not flagged as spam.

You will have 5 days to accept/decline a seat offer or the seat will automatically decline. The seat will then be offered to another student in the wait pool.

As seats become available the system will continue to send out seat offers. Available seats will be offered through September 10^th.  You can email [email protected] at any time to see how many students are in the grade appropriate wait pool.

Westgate has wait pools for each grade level vs. a numbered list.  Seats are randomly picked by the system from the wait pool as seats become available. You can email [email protected] at any time to see how many students are in the grade appropriate wait pool.

All applications received after Jan. 31^st will be placed in the grade appropriate wait pools.

Current students do not need to re-apply each year unless they are in 8^th grade and applying for our high school program.  More information about our high school application can be found on the Enrollment page of the website.  Current families will need to fill out the Intent to Return form every January to indicate that they are staying at Westgate.  The form will be emailed directly to you.
