We got a confirmation through MySchoolDC (it will show enrolled) much more quickly than the confirmation from the school.



This. We just did this a couple weeks ago, this is what the admin recommended (fill out the form for existing student, and there is a drop down menu to select the school). I was also nervous, but it worked.

Fill out an enroll new student form via Aspen and... at the very end, it asks you to name the school.

We did this a few years ago--accepted a WL offer when already enrolled elsewhere--and the school we were moving to helped us figure it out.

I'm not sure what "do it as a form" means?

I'm confused about what forms I'm supposed to do in Aspen. The school said I just do it as a form, but there's not a way to change the selected school. Do I just Enroll as new student?
