Administrative transfer allows students to enroll in APS traditional schools when they do not live in that school zone. The administrative transfer window opens each March for the following school year and is open for three weeks. Schools are typically open for administrative transfer if they have extra classroom space. Although openings are not published until March, the lookup table below shows which schools have offered administrative transfer in the past, which can be predictive of future openings. For more information on administrative transfers, including how to apply, see this page.

Because the administrative transfer window is only open for three weeks, it is important to know when the window opens. Enter your email below to receive a reminder when the widow opens:

APS charter schools are public schools that operate under a contract with the APS school board. Charter schools have district-wide enrollment zones and are allowed flexibility in their programming in exchange for specific performance goals.

All families living within the Atlanta Public School district may apply to attend an APS charter school. Registration is handled at the individual schools and is only limited by available space. Charter schools may set geographic enrollment priority zones in their charter. Any spaces available after initial registration are filled by lottery. Use the links below to learn how to enroll with each APS charter school, or visit this page to learn more about APS charter schools.
