    With no tuition costs, iCSI accelerates students' education, helping them discover their talents and purpose. Enrolling at iCSI provides proper preparation, ensuring students are both academically and technically prepared to excel in various cybersecurity career paths.

    Can I Be Enrolled In A High School Outside Of NEISD And Also Attend ICSI?

    Students do not have to live within NEISD boundaries in order to attend our ICSI magnet school program. However, students who are currently enrolled at another school district will need to enroll full-time at MacArthur High School in order to attend ICSI.
