INTRODUCING THE ESA+ (EDUCATION STUDENT ACCOUNTS)
ESA+ is a North Carolina state-funded program that provides families with the financial resources necessary to choose the school best fit for their exceptional children. The Children with Disabilities Grant and Personal Education Savings Account program were combined to create ESA+, beginning with the 2022-23 school year.
The ESA+ program is for students with special needs. It covers tuition and fees at a private school and expenses related to educating a child with a disability.
The application period for the 2024-25 school year is closed at this time.
