Transfer Students

Overview

Thank you for your interest in St. Francis Catholic High School!

We welcome transfer applications for our sophomore and junior classes on a space-available basis, and we look forward to introducing you the St. Francis community!

Transfer students are encouraged to join us for a shadow day to learn more about our campus, observe classes, and join us for a hosted community lunch.

A complete application for transfer admission consists of the following: (1) Online application for admission, (2) Academic Record Report (transcripts and standardized test scores), (3) Principal, English and Math Recommendation Forms, and (4) Student/Parent Interview. 

1. Application for Admission

Please click here to access the online transfer application. There are sections for both parents and the student to complete and there is a $50 application fee. When completing the application for admission you will create a login that you will use to access your online parent portal for all the other steps in the admissions process.  After submitting the application, please wait 24 hours for the application to process, then log in and proceed to Step 2. 

2. Academic Record Request

We request that your daughter’s current school send us a transcript for completed and in-progress high school courses as well as any high school standardized test results. After obtaining the email address for the person responsible for your daughter’s academic record reports at her current school (this could be a Registrar or administrative staff) you will sign on to the parent portal and submit the Academic Record Report request directly to that person. You should only need to email this form to her current school as they should have her complete educational records from all schools she has attended. 

3. Recommendation Forms:  Principal, Math, English

After obtaining the email addresses for the applicant’s Principal, Math teacher, and English teacher, sign on to the parent portal and submit the recommendation form to each recommender. 

4. Student-Parent Interview

All applicants, accompanied by at least one parent, will participate in an admissions interview. The interviews last approximately 15-20 minutes and will be arranged once the transfer application is complete. The interview can be combined with a campus tour, and it gives us an opportunity to get to know our prospective students and answer any questions they may have about transitioning to St. Francis.

If you have questions about the transfer process, please contact Director of Enrollment Management Lisa Wilkins at (916) 737-5095 or lwilkins@stfrancishs.org.
