[quote=Anonymous]To clarify, no, you do not need to be a resident to apply for the lottery. You can be a non-resident and apply as a non-resident and if there are any spaces left after all the residents have been admitted, they will be offered to you for a fee. However, since there will also be a waiting list 400 years long filled with residents, there will not be any spaces left for non-residents. The only way to get in as a non-resident would be to lie in the lottery application and use a DC address, which would be cheating and, if discovered, would get your child kicked out of school. Obviously if you have purchased or rented a primary residence in DC and just have not moved into it yet (due to being from out of state and waiting until the end of the year, for example, or due to a closing date being next month), you might call the school and ask them about your specific situation.
