The order of enrollment preference is as follows: 

  1. An eligible student who used a scholarship account in the previous school year
    and has submitted the required accountability measure;
  2. An eligible student who is a sibling of an eligible student who:
    1. uses a scholarship account at the time the sibling applies for a scholarship
      account; or
    2. used a scholarship account in the school year immediately preceding the
      school year for which the sibling is applying for a scholarship account; 
  3. An eligible student:
    • who did not use a scholarship account in the previous school year; and
    • with a family income at or below 300% of the federal poverty level;
  4. For any remaining scholarships, to an eligible student on a lottery basis.

 

Note: the enrollment prioritization was changed in HB 467, passed in March 2026.
