A step-by-step tutorial for filling out the online student transfer application

- The enrolling parent needs to create a Student Information System (SIS) Parent Account. Please contact the enrolled school for an activation key.
- Students new to FCPS must be enrolled at a base school before starting the student transfer application
Contact [email protected] for any questions.
Let’s Get Started!
- Access the online student transfer application.
- Type in your username and password that corresponds to the enrolling parent Student Information (SIS) Account.
- 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.
- Select “Child Care Hardship” as the reason for transfer request. (Also, make sure the correct school year has been selected.)
- Enter your child care provider information. The application will identify the school you may request.
- Parents must enter child care providers in their base school boundary to proceed with a request.
- Check the four boxes at the bottom to agree to the Letter of Understanding.
- Review the application, and select "Pay Online Now" to pay the non-refundable application processing fee.
- On the MySchoolBucks site, you may create an account, use a current account, or continue as a guest.
- Review the application and select “Submit.”
The enrolling parent will receive an email confirming the transfer application submission.
Please allow 2-3 weeks to process the request. The enrolling parent will receive a decision email when the process is completed.
