Let’s Get Started!

1. Access the online student transfer application.
2. Type  in your username and password that corresponds to the enrolling parent Student Information (SIS) Account. 
   
      
3. If your child appears under the enrolling parent (green) bar, select “Start a transfer request.” 
   
   
   • Select “Renew Request” instead of “Start a transfer request” if you are requesting a renewal of a student transfer and your student continues to meet the same student transfer criteria as indicated in the original student transfer application.
   • If your child appears under the viewing parent (burgundy) tab then you may not proceed with application submission.  The enrolling parent needs to submit the application on behalf of the family. 
     
4. Select “Medical, Emotional, or Social Adjustment” as the reason for transfer request. (Also, make sure the correct school year has been selected.)
   
   
   • If the parent has not submitted the required documentation to the enrolled school or the school has not acknowledged receipt of the documentation in SIS the parent will not be able to proceed with the transfer request.
     
5. Select the closest open school to the student’s home address.  
   
   
6. Check the four boxes at the bottom to agree to the Letter of Understanding.
