Yes. WAVE is an approved Direct Provider for families in the Step Up For Students scholarship program. After you create an account for your family, we'll send you an email with simple and straightforward instructions on how to register for classes and pay tuition or fees directly from your SUFS account.

This direct payment method completely bypasses the reimbursement process, no longer requiring families to accrue receipts or wait for approvals.

While we recommend the simple direct payment method for SUFS / FES-UA / PEP families, you may still opt to pay for tuition or fees with a credit card and seek reimbursement from the SUFS program. From your WAVE personal account, you can download a Statement (paid invoice) with all the required info to submit for reimbursement as per the SUFS policies. Note however that we cannot guarantee you will be reimbursed per the SUFS program. For reimbursement submission, go to the SUFS website and from "Category" select the "Home Education Instructional Program."
