Arizona Empowerment Scholarship Account (ESA) Program
TABLE OF CONTENTS
Overview
 | - Arizona students in grades K-12 may qualify for Arizona's ESA program.
- Enlightium Academy is an approved provider for the scholarship, which means you may be entitled to receive $4,000-$9,000* per student each year to help pay your tuition.
- *Amounts are based on published full-year award amounts for the 2022-2023 school year. Enlightium Academy cannot guarantee specific awards for any student.
|
Application Timeframe
 | - Applications are accepted on a rolling basis.
- The deadline to sign an ESA contract and receive funding for the entire school year is September 30th, and it can take up to 30 days to process new applications.
- Families who apply after September 30th may still be eligible to receive prorated funding for the remainder of the school year.
- For example, families who sign ESA contracts in Quarter 2 will receive funding for Quarter 2.

How Can You Use These Funds?
 | Your ESA funds can: - Offset or completely cover the Enlightium Online Program tuition (grades 3-12) and potentially either upgrade (Priority Support or Expanded Support Upgrades).
- Offset the cost of the Enlightium Prep Program (grades 3-12).
- Be used to purchase books directly from BJU Press (grades PreK-5)*. Contact the bookseller to find out how. Books cannot be purchased from Enlightium.
- Additionally, funds may be able to roll over to the next school year, allowing a family to choose a program such as the Enlightium Online Program and potentially Enlightium Prep the following school year.
*Note that students under the age of five are usually not eligible for the ESA.
**Please note that Enlightium cannot guarantee award amounts for any given student. Parents are responsible for any tuition or fees owed to Enlightium that are not covered by their student’s ESA. |
