PG Specialty School Data

[Anonymous]

Is there any way to get data for how long waitlists are for the speciality programs for PG schools this year. Particularly interested in the CMIT and language immersion programs.

It isn't publicly available as far as I know. There used to be a way to search the waitlist numbers but I don't think that you can do this with the new system.
I'm guessing that the Pupil Accounting office has that data if you ask for it.

I think that most of the language immersion programs run through most of the waitlist because there always late lotteries for some of the schools.

This year there was an August lottery for:
Maya Angelou French Immersion
Cesar Chavez Dual Immersion (Primary language Spanish only)
Overlook Spanish Immersion
Phyllis E. Williams Spanish Immersion

Lots of the TAG programs also had openings in August.

And remember that waitlists vary a lot by grade.
