FBISD Accepting New Applications for High School Academies through February 24

FORT BEND ISD ― Fort Bend ISD has reopened the application process for entry into high school academies for the 2012-2013 school year. Current eighth and ninth-grade students who are interested in attending a high school academy are asked to complete and submit an online application for the academy of their choice. The deadline to apply is February 24.

To access the online High School Academy application, visit the FBISD website at www.fortbendisd.com. Go to “Quick Links,” and click on “Academy Application.” From the Fort Bend ISD Academies page, click on, “Application for FBISD’s high school academies.” Complete the online application and SUBMIT the completed application electronically by the February 24 deadline. (A complete application includes: the online academy application, an essay, two teacher recommendations, and data submission.) Students who saved, but did not submit academy applications prior to the original December 9 application deadline now have the option to submit the saved application. Incomplete or late applications will not be accepted.

An added feature to the application process is the “New Application Status Page.” Students can access the status page by logging in with their Student ID and name. Here students can view all their application material, including the saved application. The page also lets students know if they have successfully completed the application process, with use of a highlighted “continue” link.

Students will be notified of admission decisions in March. For more information, please call 281-634-1129.
