    Enrollment Information

    We accept applications for enrollment throughout the year. However, it is to a student's advantage to transfer at the beginning or end of a grading period. In order to accelerate the application process, it is important that students provide us with their academic records (official transcripts, immunization records, etc.).

    To Enroll at Ubah Academy, please download, complete, and return the Enrollment Application to our school's Main Office.
