Admissions

To enter your child(ren) in the lottery, please create an account at Lotterease.  Choose the correct grade level lottery in which to enter your child(ren).  Children of faculty/staff and Board members, as well as siblings of students currently enrolled at BIA, have preference.

For additional information or help with creating a Lotterease account, please reach out to Carmen Swift, cswift@biaschool.org, or 770-538-1550.

The 24-25 lottery will be held at BIA on March 7th, 2024, at 4:00 pm in a public forum.  You do not need to be present as lottery results will be available to all through Lotterease.  Lottery results and waitlists will also be posted on BIA website within a week after the lottery.

• Upon conclusion and verification of the lottery results, parents/guardians will be notified of their child(ren)’s admission OR their order on the waitlist.
• Parents/guardians must confirm acceptance of their child(ren)’s admission within 48 hours and complete the admission process through Enrollease within 5 business days or their spot will be forfeited to the next person on the waitlist.
• Parents who are present during the lottery may pick up a registration packet at that time.  Registration packets are also available by clicking the file at the bottom of this page or can be picked up at the front desk.
• Documents may be delivered in one of the following ways:

Once the lottery has run and an opening becomes available in a grade level, the first applicant on the waitlist will be contacted via e-mail. The parent/guardian will be given 48 hours (2 days) to confirm, or the next applicant on the waitlist will be contacted.

• Names will be added to the waitlist in the order they are received. The waitlist is active until the next lottery is held.
