Non-resident

Non-Resident Enrollment

If you are planning to move to New York City, you do not need to apply for non-resident enrollment. You can register your child for school after you establish residency. For information about registration for new students, visit our New Students page.

We are no longer accepting non-resident applications for the 2011-12 school year.

For more information about non-resident enrollment, please read the Chancellor's Regulation on Non-Resident Enrollment.

Tuition Rates
Non-resident students must pay tuition based on the rates set each year by the State Education Department.

The 2010-11 provisional rates are below.

Non-resident students are not eligible to attend and may not apply to attend specialized schools, screened/selective schools or programs, gifted and talented programs, or pre-Kindergarten programs. 

Specialized High School Admissions Test
A student cannot take the Specialized High School Admissions Test until he or she becomes a New York City resident. The test is administered just before school begins for ninth and tenth graders who are new to the city; new residents can take the test at that time.
