Important ACE Update! Scholarships Available April 11!

April 10, 2022 Leave a Comment

From Agudath Israel of Ohio:

One of the new legislative changes that we championed in this past state budget, was to create the ACE Scholarship Account using Federal Emergency COVID funds. Simply put, every family with income below 300% of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL) will be able to apply for a $500 dollar scholarship for each child 6-18 in their family.

The ACE accounts are on a first-come, first-serve basis, so please prepare now to be able to apply as soon as the link is live on Monday, April 11!

As these scholarships are available to hundreds of thousands of Ohio children and there are limited slots, applicants are advised to apply as soon as the site opens on April 11th (We are not yet sure if the site will go live at midnight or later in the day)

Apply Here on April 11th

Rules for this program require participants to have and use an OH ID account. (Note: This account is used for EdChoice verification so many parents may already have set up accounts)
