What is the IL Tax Credit Scholarship Program?

The State of Illinois recently passed the Invest in Kids Act to help provide families funding to attend the school of their choice. Scholarships offered through this program may cover a significant amount of tuition for next school year.

Who qualifies for the Tax Credit Scholarship?

Students from low-income families are eligible to receive an IL Tax Credit Scholarship. The Scholarship Granting Organization (SGO) will make these determinations.

 What steps do I need to take to participate in this program?

Families can apply through Empower Illinois at  https://empowerillinois.org/students/how-do-i-apply. Families will be notified of their scholarship application status by Empower Illinois.

The school admission process is separate from the IL Tax Credit Scholarship process.  An IL Tax Credit Scholarship does not guarantee admission.  See our Admissions Page for full details on how to apply for admission to Providence Catholic.
