Wyoming Education Savings Account
Up to $7,000 / student / year
Homeschool-eligible amount. Some programs pay private-school students more.
Who qualifies and what you give up
Wyoming's Education Savings Account pays $7,000 per student per year beginning in the 2025-26 school year. Eligible students are Wyoming residents aged 4 through grade 12 who are not enrolled in public school. Homeschool families qualify — participation requires that parents ensure instruction covers core subjects and that students are assessed on academic progress via the state assessment or a nationally norm-referenced assessment. Pre-K applicants (age 4) are subject to an income cap (household income at or below 250% of the federal poverty guidelines). Applications are managed through the Wyoming Department of Education; contact [email protected] with questions.
