Hudson High School of Learning Technologies (A18A)
Program code A18A · Cycle 2024-2025
8 applicants · 76 seats last year; every priority group with applicants received offers.

↳ Manhattan students or residents | <10 | <10 | 1.00 |
↳ New York City residents | <10 | <10 | 1.00 |
Last year’s published figures. Schools make more offers than seats because not everyone enrolls, so offers can exceed seats. Counts under 10 are suppressed (shown as “<10”).
