About Us
2024-2025 School Year Enrollment
The lottery application window for the 2024-2025 school year closed on January 22, 2024. Students will be accepted off the waitlist as new enrollment spots become available. If you applied for the 2024-2025 school year through the ApplyPhilly website after January 22, 2024, your post lottery application will be held in a database and you will not receive a waitlist number. We will only accept students from this database when we have surpassed the lottery-drawn waitlist.
GWCS held the lottery on February 7, 2024. The results can be found on the Apply Philly Charter Website. All applicants received notification of their position in the lottery on the Apply Philly Charter common notification date of February 9, 2024. Applicants can also log into Apply Philly Charter to check the results of the lottery at https://applyphillycharter.force.com/
