      It appears it may be a “first come, first serve” situation because it says families will find out if they have a spot or if they are on the waitlist. You can choose up to two spots but you have to rank them, apparently.

      From FAQs:
      When will I know if my child is placed at our preferred preschool site?
      You will know whether your child is offered a seat or is on a site’s waitlist immediately after submitting the application on the next screen, and through an email notification. See below for more information on next steps.

      How is it decided who gets an offer and who is on a waitlist?
      Priorities for offers include preferences for our city’s highest-needs families: low income families, students with disabilities, students in temporary living situations, foster children, and more. While there may be seats available at a given program, one family may meet priority qualifications and receive an offer for a seat, but another family may not and would be placed on the waitlist for that site.
