🔥 Big, Big Day Yesterday 🔥

2,893 waitlisted students received Utah Fits All! 👏

With a $12.8 million balance remaining in the UFA fund, Odyssey awarded scholarships to all remaining students in Preference Level 3 and over 1,400 to Preference Level 4 students.

Now more than 21,000 students will be participating in the scholarship program in the 2026-2027 school year. 🚀 This represents amazing growth in just three short years! The program has tripled in size and thousands more Utah families are enjoying the freedom and access to choose the best fit for their child’s education.

🎯 UEFA Next Steps

Our work continues forward — nearly 5,000 children remain on the waitlist this year. We are focused on securing an increase in the Utah Fits All appropriation during the 2027 legislative session. We will be seeking millions in additional funding to be added to the current $120 million UFA allocation to support the families still waiting and hoping for a scholarship opportunity.

🔜 As we’ve shared before, this is a goal that demands the help of our entire UEFA Community. We will be counting on you in the coming weeks to join us in communicating with our legislators. More information on this will be coming.
