CYT Orlando Inc. accepts the Step Up For Students  Scholarship. We accept the FES-US, PEP, FTC & FES-EO scholarships. Below is additional information on the program. Scholarships for Florida Schoolchildren.

 

Step Up For Students was created by the Florida Legislature in 2001 to help alleviate the enormous educational challenges faced by children in Florida.  These scholarships allow the students to consider a participating private school that may better suit their individual needs. They are awarded on a first-come, first-served basis, so it is important to check the website regularly and to meet all scholarship requirements and deadlines.
