After you have read through the Admissions FAQ and still do not know the answer to your question, please email LASAadmissions@
austinisd.org. This is the best way for you to communicate with LASA regarding your application. - After students submit their final version of the LASA Supplemental Materials form, they will receive information and the registration link to shadow at LASA. Please note that parents must have begun the Enroll Austin process and ranked LASA as one of the schools their student wants to attend before you submit the shadow request form. Shadowing is optional and has no bearing on admissions. Please do not share the shadow link. We will verify that an application is complete before allowing anyone to sign up to shadow.
- Throughout the application process, we will communicate with you via email to the email you provided in the Enroll Austin application with any updates or when your application is complete. If you completed and submitted all of your application materials but you did not receive a confirmation email, please email LASA at LASAadmissions@austinisd.org.
- Before you contact LASA, please check all your inboxes (including promotional) and your spam folder to ensure that the confirmation email did not end up there. We typically send out these emails starting in December. We are looking forward to getting to know all of our applicants through this application process.
