The Enrollment Process:

As an Alameda Unified public school, ASTI is committed to serving the community of Alameda. Alameda residents will be given first priority in applying and all non-Alameda residents will be considered for enrollment should additional spots be available. ALL students – regardless of residence – must complete all application documents and the diagnostic exam to be eligible for enrollment. Each year ASTI enrolls 50 students in the freshman class. Should more than 50 students apply and be eligible for enrollment, a lottery will be held to allocate positions in the freshman class and determine the order of the waitlist. The lottery process will be differentiated by math level to ensure balanced class sizes. Siblings of current ASTI students (Alameda residents) will be given preference within the lottery process. If needed, a separate lottery will also be held for any non-Alameda residents to fill remaining positions in the freshmen class. Applicants for the Fall 2011 10th grade class will be considered if space is available. ASTI does not accept transfer students for the 11th or 12th grade.
Additional Requirement:
Proficiency in Algebra: ASTI does not offer Algebra 1. To be eligible for the lottery a student must have demonstrated proficiency in Algebra 1 both through grades (C- or better in Algebra 1) and standardized test performance (Basic or above).
