How Utah Fits All and Carson Smith fit
Utah Fits All pays $8,000 for a private-school student for 2026-27 at an approved school; home-based students receive $4,000 or $6,000 by age. Odyssey runs the program, and returning students, siblings and lower-income families are funded first when applications exceed the money.
On the Utah Fits All Scholarship participating-school list (approved 2026-27 Utah Fits All private-school list, Oct 2026). That means Intermountain Christian School can be paid from a Utah Fits All account once you select it in the Odyssey portal and the school confirms enrollment. Ask how tuition is billed and whether fees are included.
On Carson Smith school lists from: USBE Carson Smith eligible-school list (per each organization's published school list, Oct 2026). A child with an IEP could use a Carson Smith scholarship here instead of Utah Fits All, never both in the same year. Being on the list is not a promise of an award.
The school also enrolls preschoolers. Utah Fits All starts at age 5, so for younger children ask about the school's preschool aid and whether it takes the state child care subsidy.
Many Salt Lake Valley Christian and Lutheran schools offer congregation-member or multi-child rates; ask whether those apply before or after a scholarship is counted.
