The federal ECCA will provide tax credit scholarships for kids in Pennsylvania starting in 2027. ECCA scholarships can be combined with existing financial aid and scholarship packages such as EITC, OSTC, EDS, and private scholarships.
Parents
- ECCA scholarships can be used for tuition, fees, book supplies, and equipment to attend K–12 private schools, microschools, or for homeschooling expenses.
- Eligible families must earn less than $358,000 per year to qualify.
Schools & Scholarship Organizations
- Sign-up for RedefinED’s ECCA Readiness Course so that your organization can take advantage of ECCA tax credit funding beginning in 2027.
Donors
- Donate up to $1,700 per annual tax return through one of Pennsylvania’s established scholarship organizations.
- Donors do not need to live in Pennsylvania and may donate to any Scholarship Granting Organization (SGOs) in the United States. A list of SGOs will be available in late 2026.
- Existing individual donors to EITC, OSTC, and EDS may also donate to ECCA.
