High-speed internet is a necessity – especially for students. That’s why the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law created the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) to lower internet costs for families. ACP provides eligible households:

Up to $30/month off their internet bills (or $75/month on Tribal lands), and
A one-time $100 discount off a laptop, tablet, or computer.

Tens of millions of U.S. households are eligible for ACP. You are eligible if any one of these applies:

A member of your household participates in:
- Free and Reduced-Price School Lunch or Breakfast Program
- Includes Community Eligibility Provision schools (which serve meals at no cost to all students)
- Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)
- Medicaid
- Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC)
- Supplemental Security Income (SSI)
- Federal Public Housing Assistance
- Veterans Pension and Survivors Benefit
- Federal Pell Grant (current year)
- Tribal assistance programs, including: Bureau of Indian Affairs General Assistance, Tribal Head Start (if meeting the relevant income qualifying standard), Tribal Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (Tribal TANF), Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations
- Your household income is 200% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines or less ($60,000 for a family of four), OR
- Your household qualifies for a participating provider’s existing low-income plan.
