Non-neighborhood Students
LAUSD has a new enrollment process for non-resident students who wish to attend Affiliated Charter schools. This includes siblings of currently enrolled students who were admitted through the lottery. Non-resident applicants who wish to attend an affiliated charter school must complete the Unified Enrollment (UE) application. Parents/Guardians may apply for more than one Affiliated Charter school online. This can be done by going to apply.lausd.net
