Welcome to SFUSD!

I applied for 2023-2024 in the Main Round and/or Round 2, but wish to transfer schools.

Spring Transfer 

Beginning September 5, 2023, students who are currently enrolled at a school for the 2023-24 school year can apply to transfer to one school for the Spring semester. Students who attend Charter Schools in San Francisco and Interdistrict students are not eligible to submit a Spring Transfer Request.

The application deadline for Spring Transfer is November 9, 2023. Families who receive their Spring Transfer request will be notified the week of December 18.

This is important to understandSpring Transfer requests are final. If we are able to assign your student to the school you request in the Spring Transfer application, their previous enrollment will be automatically canceled after the end of the Fall semester on December 21. That enrollment change is not reversible

To see additional information about Spring Transfer and to access the online or paper application, visit sfusd.edu/springtransfer.
