This article is intended to provide clarity on the next steps after receiving an eligible status.
Wait for Funding Confirmation
If your application has been deemed Eligible, this does not guarantee approval or funding. Final approval and award amounts depend on the availability of state funds, which will be allocated based on the program's priority guidelines. At the moment, you must wait for a decision to be made. Once that's ready, you will receive an email notification, and your status will be updated in your Odyssey Account.
Select A School
In the meantime, your next steps are to log into the Odyssey Account and select the school that your student will be attending. To do so, go to your student’s profile and click on the [Select School] button. Once there, you’ll see a dropdown with all the school options. Please select your school of choice and submit.
It is important to note that selecting a school in the Odyssey Platform does not constitute official school enrollment; you must complete the enrollment process directly with the school.

Confirm Tuition & Fees
If you have selected a BESE-Approved Nonpublic School, the school must review your enrollment request and, if verified, set tuition and fees for the academic year. Once that’s done, you’ll be able to confirm or deny the amount in your Odyssey Account by clicking on the [Review Tuition & Fees] button. If awarded funding, you will have the option to use it for quarterly tuition payments or to purchase approved products and services through the Odyssey Marketplace.
