Students who are expelled because they do not have legal settlement in the corporation may also be reported with this code. However, it is better to obtain mobility documentation, such as transcript requests for high school students, so the school's graduation rate is not affected.

One of the primary reasons a student is mobile is because the student has transferred to another school.  

This code may be used for a transfer to any Indiana public school, charter school, state-accredited nonpublic school, postsecondary program, virtual school located in Indiana, double-up program, fast track program, or alternative school that continues the student’s education on a full-time basis in order to issue a high school diploma. A student who leaves school to pursue a High School Equivalency (HSE) is considered a dropout and should not be reported as a transfer. A student attending a Job Corps or an adult education center may only be reported as a transfer if the student is pursuing a high school diploma at this location and the documentation clearly indicates this. 

Students must be picked up by another Indiana school after code 19 is reported. If the student is not picked up by another Indiana school, then students in grades 9, 10, 11, or 12 will be listed as “unknown” on the cohort of the last school to submit a Student School Association (SSA) enrollment record for the student, unless the school has updated the student’s status to another more accurate mobility code. A status of “unknown” is considered a dropout. When a public, charter, or state-accredited school reports a high school student to the state as enrolled at that school, the student will appear on the new school’s cohort and no longer appear on the first school’s cohort. The first school will report the student as exiting with mobility code 19, Transfer.

Please Note: A student who leaves school to pursue a High School Equivalency (formerly GED) is considered a dropout and should not be reported as a transfer.
