Approval of your school to participate in the scholarship program does not equate to approval of scholarships for students. Each student must be approved for a scholarship by AAA (and have that scholarship funded) before any payments will be processed. Schools should not accept any students without a Scholarship Award Letter and School Commitment Form (SCF) unless the household: 1) is willing to self-pay their tuition and fees until they are awarded a scholarship and 2) will self-pay if they are not.
Arizona Schools
You asked and we delivered! Here is a list of the requested improvements that we’ve made to our Arizona scholarships: 
1) All eligible students will be awarded renewable three-year scholarships at the MAXIMUM VALUE allowed by law ($6,500 for grades K-8 and $8,300 for 9-12th)!
2) Your families can stack other STO scholarships on top of their maxed-out AAA scholarship!
AAA Scholarship Foundation works with schools in each of our scholarship states to make Academic Achievement Accessible. We can not do that without excellent schools for families to choose from.
Each state has individual guidelines determined by the laws of that state and the accountability guidelines of the AAA Scholarship Foundation. Please see below to view details on school participation in this state.

FAQ #1: Our school has completed the SMP onboarding process. How do we view our current year students and payments?
ANSWER: The SMP system is designed to display scholarship information for the 2025-2026 school year and beyond. The 2024-2025 school year will not appear in the SMP. Here is a link to our helpful guide for the 2024-2025 school year processes. For details on payments for the 2024-2025 academic year, please scroll to the bottom of this page for the payment schedule.
