State Mandate. Help Required.

Oklahoma's open transfer mandate doesn't come with extra staff. Under Senate Bill 783, every Oklahoma district must accept transfer applications year-round and report to the state quarterly — capacity by grade level for every school and the decision for every open transfer request.

For Broken Arrow — among the most requested districts for open transfer — those obligations landed on a four-person central enrollment team already at capacity. Every summer, the team helped families at the central enrollment center during the day and processed annual updates and new enrollments at night just to keep up.

By September, one team member questioned whether they could make it through another summer. New enrollments and open transfers kept coming. The team was at its limit, and the work wasn't slowing down.

Help was required.

Broken Arrow leadership learned that Union Public Schools had navigated a similar capacity challenge — and that Edulyze had made the difference. A recommendation came directly from Union's director of enrollment.

After the first demonstration of Edulyze Enrollment Document Verification, leadership knew this was the help they needed. Every document submitted with an enrollment application verified against the district's policies automatically — the team would only need to review the exceptions flagged by Edulyze, giving them room to meet the SB 783 mandate.

In November 2025, Broken Arrow implemented Edulyze, integrating with Infinite Campus SIS and Microsoft Entra ID SSO. Edulyze handled nearly the entire onboarding process — the team went from kickoff to go-live in two weeks, including Thanksgiving Break, with less than 30 minutes required from the district.

Help had arrived.

And it brought something extra.

The enrollment policies weren't as specific as they thought, and different judgment calls had gone unnoticed. Edulyze surfaced the variances immediately — and together, they refined the documented policy.

Less Stress. The tedious, repetitive, manual review of every document against the district's enrollment policies turned into a series of green check marks. What once felt overwhelming now felt doable, even with the additional open transfer oversight responsibilities.

Cleaner Data. One team member would accept a screenshot of a utility bill. Another wouldn't. Now every application runs against the same policy — automatically. Clean, consistent data flows into the SIS from the start.

Happier People. The team member who questioned whether they could make it through another summer is now the most vocal about what a difference Edulyze has made. Instead of worrying about missing something, they could focus on the cases that actually needed their attention.
