Transfer to TC
Admission for transfer students is dependent on space availability. If your student has applied previously, a new application will need to be completed. Please contact the admissions office at 813-870-0860 x121 for additional transfer information or to schedule a tour. Please review admission criteria below (different from new incoming freshmen) and Tampa Catholic Curriculum, as all transfer students must be on track to meet Tampa Catholic's graduation requirements.

Transfer Student Process
Tampa Catholic does not accept applications for local (Tampa Bay region) seniors or juniors at the beginning of the second semester. If your family is relocating, admission can be considered if space permits. TC Tuition Assistance is not available for students transferring in the second semester. Families may apply for tuition assistance the following school year(s).
Note on Valedictorian & Salutatorian Eligibility: Students must have completed a minimum of five consecutive semesters at Tampa Catholic and be a model of exemplary behavior with no major disciplinary infractions.
STEP 1: COMPLETE AN APPLICATION

Please save your log-in information as you will use this to enroll your student if accepted. Immediately after applying, you will be provided a confirmation email with further instructions.
STEP 2: REQUEST FOR RECORDS
We will need records from your student's current school, including their high school transcript, standardized test scores, and courses with grades in process.

Transfer students must be on track to graduate from Tampa Catholic.
Students who have documented special needs must provide the complete results of a psychological-educational evaluation (within the last 3 years). Please fax or email the information to the Admissions Office. Information is confidential.
After the required records transfer affidavit are received, an Admissions Committee reviews the applicant's file and makes the final decision on admission.

When a transfer applicant receives an acceptance letter to Tampa Catholic High School, he or she will also receive the required transfer affidavit form to complete prior to enrollment.
