Consider something like you want to transfer from school A to school B.

Now consider the following:

  1. You can change the school if you have the admission from the school B.
  2. You can change the schools if you have the admission from the school B.

I heard the plural form when two people were talking. I am actually not sure which one is correct or if both are correct, or what's the difference, or why they used the plural form.

The action of changing involves both schools, so:

You can change schools if you have the admission from the school B.

I wouldn't use "have the admission". Better might be "if you can be admitted to school B", "met the admission requirements of school B", or such.

  • Thanks, it's interesting. By "having" the admission I meant having the admission letter though or admission offer or something like that.

    "You can change schools if you have an admission letter from school B." makes sense.
