NOTES: Eligible applicants already attending private school were given a zero probability of receiving a scholarship because the Program was rapidly filling with higher priority public school applicants. Applicants in cohort 2 entering grades 6–12 were required to participate in baseline testing prior to entry in the lottery. As a result, applicants who were deemed eligible based on income and residency but did not participate in the baseline testing are not included in the table.
