We are excited to share that the Rolling Admissions Application Cycle for BASIS Independent Manhattan, a PreK-12 private school in NYC, is officially open for the 2026-2027 school year.

As the Home of the Wildcats, our community is eager to welcome new families who are ready to join a school environment where intellectual curiosity builds subject mastery.

Applications for the 2026–2027 school year are now being accepted on an ongoing basis until all remaining seats are filled. Families may continue to apply for PreK through Grade 10.


What Rolling Admissions Means for Your Family

Admissions Decisions this Winter and Spring
After Regular Admissions Notifications are released in February, completed Rolling Admissions applications will receive an admissions decision within five business days. This allows families to plan ahead with clarity and confidence for the upcoming school year.

A Greater Chance to Secure a Seat
Rolling Admissions operates on a first-come, first-served basis, which means early applicants have the best opportunity to secure a spot in our program. If you are considering joining the Wildcat community, applying early truly matters!

How to Get Started

1. Submit Your Application
Submit your application on Ravenna to begin the admissions process.

2. Review the Rolling Admissions Application Checklist
Review our Rolling Admissions application process here to prepare you and your family for the application steps and requirements.

3. Join Us for an Admissions Event
We continue to offer Campus Tours and a variety of in-person and virtual admissions events. These experiences give families the opportunity to meet members of our school leadership, explore our campus, and see our world-class program in action. We invite you to register for an upcoming event!

We are excited to begin this process with you and look forward to meeting you and your family, and introducing you to the Wildcat Community!
