East Millbrook Academy of Arts and Design is open to all middle school students in Wake County.  As long as you live in Wake County, you can apply to East Millbrook.

If you are not currently attending a WCPSS school, you must register at your base school before applying to any WCPSS magnet school. You are not enrolling in the school; you are simply registering your student to receive an ID number that will be used to process your application. To determine what your base school is, please use the WCPSS Base School Locator.

Acceptance to any WCPSS magnet school is determined by a weighted lottery based on a priority system. To determine your magnet priority, please see how WCPSS determines Magnet Priorities.

For further information on applying to East Millbrook or any other WCPSS magnet school, please check the WCPSS Magnet Programs page on the district website.

The Magnet Application Window typically opens mid-October and closes in late January. For more details about applying, please check the WCPSS Magnet Application page.
