Report Type Reports and Testimonies
Report Date Sept. 24, 2019
Release Date Oct. 24, 2019
Report No. GAO-19-664
Summary:

Seventeen states offer state tax credits for donations to organizations that fund scholarships for students to attend private schools. The President’s 2020 budget request proposes new federal tax credits for such donations.

In 2017, scholarship organizations in these states received over $1.1 billion in donations.

We reviewed state requirements for finances, academics, and other topics and found:

All programs limit the percentage of donations that may be used to administer programs (2-20%)

11 programs require academic testing

States with the largest programs vary in how they monitor participating private schools
