The Academy of Dover Charter School utilizes an open enrollment plan. Any child who is qualified under the laws of Delaware for enrollment to a public school is qualified for admission to the Academy of Dover Charter School.

If more students submit applications than can be accommodated by the Academy's capacity — class, grade or building, a waiting list will be maintained for each grade level in order of receipt of their application, on a first-come, first-served basis. Sibling preference will be honored as long as there is room in the particular grade. If the grade is full, the sibling will be put on a waiting list for the grade.

All applicants are requested to attend a tour before application is accepted.
