General Information:
Welcome to the Prince William County Public Schools portal for online Specialty Program applications. When completing an application for your student, please note that a separate application must be submitted for each student. All PWCS specialty programs are geographically zoned. Students may submit applications for 1st, 2nd and 3rd choice programs in their zoned areas. Duplicate applications for the same choice program will be eliminated- the more recent submission will be kept. Incomplete applications will not be evaluated.
All applications will be processed electronically. All requests will be checked for accuracy. Any falsification of information may result in your application not being processed and/or denied.
We now require that Parents/Guardians create an account in order to complete an application. Use this page to either create a new account, or log in to an existing account. Only one account per family is required.
