Choose Hamilton
Available Choice Seats
IMPORTANT: This year’s selections should be made in ranking order. #1 selection will be your top choice with #5 selection being your last choice. You may make up to five selections, but it is not a requirement.
CCA will continue to audition students for the 2025-2026 school year through the 2nd round but are not found on the 2nd Round application. Interested applicants should reach out to the Dean of Fine Arts, Vincent Hale, at CCA for more information.
These numbers are preliminary and subject to change (i.e., increase or decrease); in the unlikely event that these numbers must be adjusted, final numbers will be posted to this website.
Non-processed
Non-processed schools mean that families still submit a school choice application and are run in the lottery, but rather than receiving a letter of acceptance, schools must first review the transcripts of applicants and applicants must complete additional steps before final acceptance. Prerequisites can be GPAs, test scores, auditions, or more. Schools then contact the students who are accepted. Waitlists expire on the first day of school of each school year and are not carried over to future years.
