Arkansas E-rate FAQ

How many E-rate Form 470s are open in Arkansas right now?

How much Category 2 budget do Arkansas school districts have left?

We estimate about $71.7 million remaining out of $89.3 million across 217 districts and independent schools for FY2026–FY2030. Each school's budget is $201.57 per student with a $30,175 minimum, less the pre-discount cost of Category 2 requests already funded or pending this cycle.

What is the allowable contract date on a Form 470?
