Lottery Selection Process
Each year HAAAT advertises a specific registration period. During that time, interested students and parents must return the necessary paperwork, complete an interview and attend an orientation. After the registration period ends, a public random lottery is held to determine which qualified students will attend HAAAT. Everyone meeting the enrollment deadline and criteria is placed into the lottery pool. Two lottery sections are to be held the same night - one for ninth grade and one for tenth grade. One new grade will be added in the 2008-09 and 2009-10.
The first 125 names chosen are eligible for HAAAT enrollment. The remaining names are drawn to determine the waiting list order. Siblings of students chosen to attend are moved to the top of the waiting list.

Famous quotes containing the words lottery, selection and/or process:
“The recent attempt to secure a charter from the State of North Dakota for a lottery company, the pending effort to obtain from the State of Louisiana a renewal of the charter of the Louisiana State Lottery, and the establishment of one or more lottery companies at Mexican towns near our border, have served the good purpose of calling public attention to an evil of vast proportions.”
—Benjamin Harrison (1833–1901)
“It is the highest and most legitimate pride of an Englishman to have the letters M.P. written after his name. No selection from the alphabet, no doctorship, no fellowship, be it of ever so learned or royal a society, no knightship,—not though it be of the Garter,—confers so fair an honour.”
—Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)
“In contrast to revenge, which is the natural, automatic reaction to transgression and which, because of the irreversibility of the action process can be expected and even calculated, the act of forgiving can never be predicted; it is the only reaction that acts in an unexpected way and thus retains, though being a reaction, something of the original character of action.”
—Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)
