The results in my dashboard still say not available, is there a known time these things drop online? Or am I missing something? Is it a phone call/email?

I think that it will be at least a couple of weeks until the next round goes out.

The CPS website says the Round 1 waitlist opens 5/16

I think it’ll be out today. We got an email from a waitlisted school yesterday that said we’d know where we are on the waitlist “sometime today” also have been refreshing and seeing different screens, so they are def working on it. But with CPS, who knows 🤷🏻♀️

Will the waitlist numbers be updated? Today, I can see the dashboard. However, the Results section is grayed out and link does not work. The wait continues…

It’s laughably frustrating!

I just called OAE, and they said that we will receive a call if we have an offer and then they will update the website the next day. If we do not have an offer, we will not see anything on the platform. Beyond frustrating!!!

Not a SEES, but I received an offer from Prescott yesterday that, per their email, I’m supposed to go into the portal to accept/decline and my results section is still grayed out and unclickable, too!

Not sure how this works because I did not get a call or email from a school on our waitlist, however, I see the school listed now as Offerred. We will decline because still waiting on a school closer to home.

Does anyone know how scoring for SEES works for Kinder? We received “no offer” from Skinner North but waitlisted for all RGCs we applied to – Edison, Pritzker, Bell. Is everyone automatically waitlisted? Or would it say no offer if we were ineligible?
i read somewhere you needed at least 115 but we only scored 103.

The SEES rubric says, “Students who score below the median on the admissions test will not be eligible to receive an offer from or join the waitlist of Classical schools or Regional Gifted Centers.” So 103 must be above the median for RGC, but the Classical score isn’t.
Here’s the rubric: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1t-7bX5zGS0MVz48nn1zKhyVtTSAWeB4n/view?usp=sharing

Does anyone know how to decline an offer at one gifted program for a chance to be at a different gifted program? One of my twins got into Bell gifted and the other into Pritzker gifted. Trying to figure out a way for them to go together. Thanks!

Before declining this offer you should consider what kind of score your kid got and how close it was to the twin’s score. If the score is even a few points down from the other twin, then unfortunately it isn’t likely you would get them both together. Going back into the waitlist pool is risky. People do decline these schools and waitlists move a little, but not a lot probably for those schools…. OAE could answer waitlist questions. I think if you decline you go back into ‘the pool’ for the remaining schools you wrote down.
