The Wyoming Education Savings Account (ESA) program is currently on hold due to a legal challenge, so there are no active application requirements at this time. When the program was active, requirements included being a K-12 student and not enrolled in a Wyoming public school, with an application process requiring proof of residency and other documents. The program was designed to provide approximately $7,000 per student for expenses like private school tuition, educational therapy, and tutoring.
