Official Mississippi rules (opens in a new tab)
  1. 1

    Check the item against the program's list

    Reimbursement programs pay only for items on their allowable-expense list. Confirm the category before you spend.

  2. 2

    Pay and keep the itemized receipt

    Buy from the vendor, then keep the itemized receipt, the student's name and the purpose of the item.

  3. 3

    Submit the claim and wait for the decision

    File the reimbursement claim through the program's process and wait for approval; the program can decline an item that does not meet its rules.

Before using ESA funds. Provider approval or a marketplace listing does not approve every product or confirm that a funded purchase can be made. Check Education Scholarship Account's current rules and payment route before buying; a direct card purchase does not guarantee reimbursement.
