- There is no general application fee to enroll in Ogden International as a neighborhood student. High‑school applicants apply through the district GoCPS system; GoCPS itself does not charge a standard application tuition. Certain specialized admissions processes that require in‑person testing or acceleration assessments may carry a separate testing fee (for example, typical selective/acceleration testing fees appear in district guidance at levels such as USD 50 for residents and higher fees for non‑residents when applicable).
