EITC Household Application

United Way of Lancaster County Pre-K Scholarship Application

The Educational Improvement Tax Credit Scholarship Program is funded by local and locally represented businesses which uphold the value of early childhood education, and the immense impact quality pre-k has on children’s developmental needs as they begin their K-12 education track. United Way of Lancaster County works directly with the PA Department of Economic Development (PA DCED) in obtaining EITC credits and transforming them into scholarship funds for local families with Pre-K scholars. If you have any questions about the process, we ask that you direct them to your school’s director who will reach out to their contact at United Way.

To qualify for a scholarship, students must be between the ages of 3-5 and enrolled in a high-quality, district-aligned Pre-K program that is partnered with United Way of Lancaster County. The child must be a member of a household with an annual household income of not more than $108,444.

Approval of applications will be based on availability of funds. All scholarship awards are paid directly to the Pre-Kindergarten program on behalf of the students and should be credited by the school to the students account as a tuition reimbursement. Scholarship awards may not exceed the actual amount of tuition charged by the program, including other scholarships and tuition assistance for the child, nor shall the scholarship exceed the amount of tuition charged to non-scholarship students.
