Enrollment Process
Upon receipt of assignment orders to an overseas location where there is no Department of
Defense Dependents School (DoDDS), contact the local NDSP liaison at your gaining
command/new location. The liaison will provide information on available schooling options at that location.
Parents may not make a commitment of U.S. Government funds to any educational institution
without completing the following steps to obtain approval from the approving authority.
Once you have gathered information about the educational options available and decide which method is best for
your dependent(s), please complete and submit a NDSP Application Package for each of your dependents enrolling in the program.
The following is required:
- Completed NDSP Application Package
- DoDEA Form 610 for each dependent.
- A new DoDEA Form 610 is required anytime there is a change in schools.
