School Choice

In Utah, parents can apply to have their students attend a school outside of their neighborhood boundaries. The Early Open Enrollment window is the time for parents to submit those applications for the next school year. It runs from November 15  through the first Friday in February.  
An application for a late enrollment or transfer may be submitted to the school at any time during the current school year, or after April 1 for the next school year.  Before completing and submitting the on-line application for a late enrollment or transfer check with the preferred school to make sure it is accepting transfer students. Principals may not be able to approve a late enrollment or transfer until after the beginning of school when the principal can determine if space is available to accommodate the request.
