  1. 1

    Confirm the child’s eligibility

    Use the official program—not a vendor page—to check residency, enrollment, income or disability requirements.

  2. 2

    Wait for the actual award

    Eligibility, an application, and a funded account are three different stages.

  3. 3

    Verify the exact expense and payment route
