School Policies
Enrollment Policy
Early College Charter School of Philadelphia uses Apply Philly Charter (APC) to manage its lottery and waitlist. Beginning with enrollment into the 2026-27 school year, APC will utilize a “ranked choice” or “Single Best Offer” (SBO) process. When families apply through APC, they submit a ranked list of their preferred charter schools that participate in the lottery, listed in order of preference (e.g., 1st choice, 2nd choice, etc.). The APC system makes offers to students for their highest-ranked school where there is an available seat and/or their desired Renaissance school, based on each school's individual lottery structure and the student's random lottery number, if applicable. Students are placed on waitlists only for schools ranked higher on their application than the school where they got an offer.
