Quarterly Distribution Approvals
- Each quarter, you will receive an email from Step Up for Students notifying you to access the EMA portal and approve that quarter’s distribution. Approval must be received in a timely manner in order to receive funding for the quarter.
School Choice Process
The School Choice Scholarship is funded by the State of Florida and is administered by an SFO such as Step Up for Students or AAA Scholarship. However, Episcopal School of Jacksonville must register the student to receive the funds.
Quarter 1 funding deadline has passed. If you have not provided the Award ID yet, you are still eligible for partial funding.
The following steps must be completed:
Apply for or Renew your Scholarship – Scholarships must be renewed each year
- Visit StepUpForStudents.org to apply for a School Choice Scholarship.
- Login to your EMA portal to renew your scholarship.
Registration with School and Parent Approval
- Parent/Guardian provides a screenshot of the Award ID to [email protected].
- School submits the student’s enrollment form to Step Up for Students.
- Parent/Guardian approves the registration within the EMA portal.
- Once parent/guardian approval is submitted, ESJ will apply a credit to the statement.
If you are expecting to receive a School Choice Scholarship and a credit does not appear on your tuition statement, contact [email protected] or Kim Delong at 904-396-5751 ext. 1140.
