Hello.

If your scholarship plans have changed and you no longer want the Unique Abilities Scholarship for the 2026-27 school year, please continue reading for available options. 

If you are interested in the Private School or PEP Scholarship:

In order to apply for the Private School or PEP Scholarship, you will first need to decline your student's 2026-27 Unique Abilities Scholarship in EMA. This is done by going to your 2026-27 application and clicking the “Decline Scholarship” link.

Please note: The PEP Scholarship is at capacity for new students for the 2026–27 school year. This means we are not able to award the PEP Scholarship to any additional new students at this time.

You may still decline your Unique Abilities Scholarship and submit a PEP Scholarship application; however, we cannot guarantee that more PEP Scholarships will become available for the 2026-27 school year. Any new students who are found eligible and who accept the scholarship will be added to our “At Capacity” list and will be notified if a PEP Scholarship becomes available for their student.

Please keep in mind that accepting the scholarship is how an eligible new student is placed on the “At Capacity” list and that additional requirements, including income prioritization, are considered prior to PEP Scholarship funding.

If you are no longer interested in any scholarship:

You may simply decline your scholarship in EMA by going to your 2026-27 application and clicking the “Decline Scholarship” link.
