The Income-Based Scholarship Program (also referred to as EdChoice Expansion), provides income-based scholarships to Ohio Students entering grades K-12. The scholarship is to be used toward tuition at the participating private school of the parents’ choice. The scholarship is renewable through high school graduation.<\/p>\n

Who is eligible?<\/h2>\n

Any student entering grades Kindergarten -12 can apply, unless they are eligible for the traditional EdChoice Scholarship<\/a>. Eligibility and award amount is based on a family’s adjusted gross income and is available to students in any part of the state.<\/p>\n

How much is the scholarship worth?<\/h2>\n

Income-Based Scholarships are worth up to $6,165 for grades K-8 and $8,407 for grades 9-12. Families whose income is at 450% or below are eligible to receive the full scholarship award amount. Families whose income is above 450% will receive a scholarship award that is prorated based on their income.<\/p>\n

*Please note currently during the 2023-2024 school year students receiving a state-funded scholarship (EdChoice, EdChoice Expansion, Jon Peterson, and the Autism Scholarship) are not eligible for a NOSF scholarship.<\/p>\n
