Applications for the $7.17 billion FCC’s Emergency Connectivity Fund will open on June 29.

Schools will have from June 29 to August 13 to apply. Schools will use the E-rate application through the Universal Service Administrative Company. You do not have to be enrolled in the E-rate program to apply.

Interested schools should consider connecting with an E-rate consultant to help with the paperwork. Tune into the FCC webinar on June 25 at 2 pm ET here.
