Utah Fits All Scholarship (Education Savings Account)

Utah offers one of the most generous homeschool funding programs in the nation through the Utah Fits All Scholarship Program. This is an Education Savings Account (ESA) available to all Utah K-12 students.

For the 2025-2026 school year, scholarship amounts are:

  • $4,000 for homeschooled students ages 5-11
  • $6,000 for homeschooled students ages 12-18
  • $8,000 for private school students

Eligible expenses are broad and include:

  • Curriculum and textbooks
  • Online courses and tutoring
  • Extracurricular activities (athletics, orchestra, drama, debate, robotics)
  • Educational field trips (museums, zoos, historical sites)
  • Technical college and university courses

As of 2025 legislation, extracurricular expenses are capped at 20% of the ESA value, and physical education expenses are also capped at 20%. Participants may roll over two-thirds of unspent funds each year. The program is now administered by Odyssey (as of May 2025).
