How Berea Jr. Academy gets paid

Families order and pay through ClassWallet. Here's what happens on the provider's side, from ESTF's official rules. ChoicePaid doesn't handle payments.

  • After a payment is approved, ClassWallet emails you a confirmation and the money should settle in your bank account within 2 to 10 business days.1
  • Student applications for 2026-27 have closed because the program reached its statutory limit of 15,000 students. The Department's approved-provider list was last updated September 28, 2026.2
  • Families pay tutors, therapists and other providers through ClassWallet's Pay Vendor, and every Pay Vendor payment needs an invoice.3
