Ohio EdChoice Expansion
Every student in Ohio can now qualify for Ohio EdChoice Expansion for the 2023-2024 school year since the passing of HB33 which provides universal school choice eligibility. The Ohio Department of Education will now begin accepting NEW applications for EdChoice Expansion. Scholarship amounts are income-based.
Please submit your application promptly. The Ohio Department of Education has established an application deadline of October 15 to receive full year funding available for your household. After that deadline, the funds will be prorated and awarded according to the date of acceptance. Until your scholarship is confirmed by the State of Ohio, you must continue to make your agreed upon tuition payments. Families currently participating in EdChoice, who have already submitted renewal paperwork, will not need to submit any additional forms.
THERE ARE TWO PARTS TO THE APPLICATION PROCESS:
Items to submit to St. Andrew-St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Catholic School via reeds@saseas.org or mailed/hand delivered to Sandy Reed in the school office.
PART ONE
Application (one per student) Click Here
Along with the application you will need to supply the following:
Proof of Residence (most recent utility bill: Duke Energy or water)
A copy of your child’s birth certificate
Authorization to deposit payments (one per student) Click Here
If you choose to email the documents, please upload as separate pdf files with defining titles (example: Reed Application, Reed Residence (utility bill), Reed birth certificate and Reed authorization).
PART TWO
Items to submit for Income Verification to the State (this you must do on your own):
Create an OH/ID. Go to Ohio ID Portal
Complete and submit the Income Verification Online Form (Parent completes and submits directly to ODE.) The application will not be processed by the state until the Income Verification is complete.
Once St. Andrew-St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Catholic School receives confirmation of your awarded amount, the 2023-2024 tuition account will be uploaded with the award and any adjustments to your current financial aid. Please continue to make your monthly payments. Once we are notified by Ohio Department of Education of your award, we will make the necessary adjustments to the remaining payments on your plan. Any account that has been paid in full will receive a refund once the funds have been received by the school.
