Empower Illinois Reservation Day 2020

Today is reservation day to apply for the Illinois Tax Credit Scholarship for the 2020-2021 school year via Empower Illinois.

Like last year, the application process will include two steps: a reservation and an application.

Parents who applied for a 2019 scholarship should have received an email from Empower Illinois reminding them to use the same email as last year to log into their EmpowerXChange portal to complete the application.

This year, the reservation will form will be available at 6:30pm, to give families time to enter their information before submission at 7pm. More information about preparing for reservation night can be found on our website under, "How Do I Apply."
