• Petition for Closing a School or Relocating the Main Campus

    for consideration by the ATS/COA Board of Commissioners
  • Commission-accredited schools must petition for approval prior to closing their school (i.e., ceasing operations permanently) or relocating their main campus (i.e., continuing operations in a new location), per Policies and Procedures IV.E. For any closures due to mergers or acquisitions, schools should complete instead the petition for change in control or legal status. In completing this form, please include links to additional documentation as requested or as deemed helpful. Your Commission staff liaison will contact you if there are any questions regarding this petition.

    NOTE: Petitions for closing a school or relocating a main campus are typically decided by the Board of Commissioners within a few months (see submission deadlines on ATS petitions and notifications webpage). If the school is relocating its main campus, the Board will require a focused evaluation visit within six months of the effective date of relocation (relocations of embedded schools moving to another part of the campus do not require focused visits, per Policies and Procedures IV.E.2).
