San Diego Cooperative Charter School Application

The 2026-2027 school year application will be live on SchoolMint on October 1st, 2025 at 6am. Families that apply from October 1st, 2025 – February 28th, 2026 will be a part of the initial lottery. Lottery date is scheduled to be on March 5th, 2026. Applications submitted after the prior deadline will automatically be waitlisted. 

New families that want to apply at San Diego Cooperative Charter School will need to create an account through our new enrollment system with SchoolMint. Parents will use their log in to place their initial application and once they are given an enrollment spot, they will begin the registration process all online! This log in will also be used for re registering current students for the upcoming school years. So make sure to save your log-in information! Please note, only the parent who has the guardian account will receive notifications from SchoolMint directly. If you would like for parent/guardian 2 to receive notification, they will need to create an account and email admissions@sdccs.org so the team can add you to the correct student profile.
