WIHI Application 2022-2023 School Year

WIHI Application for the 2022-2023 School Year

Our application is a three step process and it is best to click save at the bottom of the app before clicking submit. Just in case it doesn't go through, you don't have to re-enter all student information again.

Current WIMA students wanting to attend WIHI for 9th grade DO NOT need to complete this application!  WIMA to WIHI enrollment will be determined when families complete their committment forms in April.

FYI - You will know your application went through by three ways:

1.) A "Thank You Note" will pop up as soon as you submit - make sure your popup blocker is off.

2.) You will get an immediate email response with a copy of the application you submitted

3.) You will receive a link to register your student for placement testing

If you do not receive these confirmations, your main application did not go through.

Please scroll up and see if anything is highlighted in RED. If so, please correct it and click "submit" again.

Here are the steps needed to complete the application:

Step 1 - Send WIHI Discipline to Current School to complete and give back to the family.

Click the link above for the WIHI Discipline Form.

Reminder - This is up to the family to obtain prior to applying. WIHI DOES NOT request student discipline records on behalf of families.

Any application received without this completed document or at least a discipline print off from the student’s current school, will have an incomplete application and will not be included in the lottery or able to participate in placement testing.

Step 2 - Attach all student support documents to online application. This includes 2021-2022 grades. The application will not go through if any forms are blank or missing.

Step 3 - Student Placement Testing - we allow up to 3hrs for testing.

Once the application has been submitted a link will pop-up for families to register for ONE placement testing day in March.

This link will also be available on the confirmation email sent immediately after the application has been submitted. If you do not receive this email right away, please be sure to check your junk or spam folder, as sometimes they get moved there.

While testing is important and we want students to do their best, placement testing does not determine acceptance.  All acceptances are determined by the lottery. Placement testing helps us determine the correct Math class and Second Language class level for each student.

The lottery and results will be posted in April. Placement testing results will be available in May.

Once all three steps have been completed, the student's application will be added to our list to be included in the lottery.

REMINDER:

Any application received without all completed and required documents, will have an incomplete application and will not be included in the lottery or able to participate in placement testing.

IF APPLYING AFTER THE DEADLINE:

Any application received/completed after the deadline, will not be included in the lottery but will be added to the bottom of the waitlist.

Parent/Legal Guardian Information:

In the state of Michigan, a step-parent or guardian is considered a “legal stranger”, even when married to a biological parent. This means that they have no legal claim to children. The situation changes if a legal adoption takes place or the court has granted guardianship over the student. For this reason, step -parents and non-court ordered guardians can not sign the application or any school forms. All school forms must be signed by the student's legal parent/guardian. Any questions about this, please contact Mrs. Cartwright @Kcartwright@wihi.org.

Decisions from the Ypsilanti School district, typically take between 3-14 school days. However, they may take longer if a release is needed from a district outside of Washtenaw County.
