Applications to all magnet programs, Dual Language choice programs, new to RISD enrollment and intradistrict and interdistrict transfers open November 1.
As part of the adjusted enrollment timeline presented to the Board of Trustees, RISD is expanding opportunities for families by opening applications earlier than in previous years. These changes give families more time to explore student choice options and find programs that align with their children’s passions, learning styles and future goals.
General enrollment for returning RISD students opens Feb. 23.
