Student Transfers
Important Information: The transfer window opens on March 14th and closes on May 1st. Families who submit their transfer requests by the May 1st deadline can expect to receive a decision by the end of May. Please note Georgetown ISD schools are closed to out-of-district transfer requests, and students living in GISD are required to attend the school zoned for their residence address.

All transfer requests granted for school year 2024-2025 were effective for one year ONLY. Any student not approved for transfer will be reassigned to their zoned campus.

Any family wishing to make a transfer request for the 2025–2026 school year MUST enter a new request by reaching out to your campus registrar.

As shared during the rezoning process, grandfathering allowances were granted for one year only. Current 7th graders may apply for a transfer to remain at their current campus under the Special Considerations transfer request.

All applications should be submitted during these posted periods. After that time, students who have not received an approved 2025-2026 transfer application will be returned to their zoned campus for the 2025-2026 school year.
