E-Rate

Educating our nation’s next generation of leaders and innovators is what you do. But even with all your talents, experience and passion, you still need technology support that’s up to the task.

Verizon Wireless can help make that job a little easier. We connect you with familiar, reliable wireless voice and data devices and services that help bring learning alive, simplify administration of K12 districts large and small, and support your facilities, personnel and students during times of crisis.

And thanks to E-Rate, you’ll be amazed how affordable that technology can be — no matter what your budget or buying schedule.

What’s E-Rate?

E-Rate is the nickname for the Universal Service Fund for Schools and Libraries (USFSL), a federal program that’s designed to give schools and libraries affordable access to certain kinds of telecommunications services like wireless voice and data.

If your school or library is eligible, E-Rate can open up discounts as much as 90% off the cost of these services.

The USFSL has set up a handy website where you can see a complete list of eligible E-Rate services, as well as the applicable funding schedule and application process.

Where can I use E-Rate discounts?

You can use E-Rate discounts almost anywhere your teachers’ imagination and school mission takes you.

  • District and school administrators can stay in touch with their main office and each other, share a single window onto shared data, manage schedules centrally and attend meetings remotely, and respond quickly as one team to emergencies.
  • Teachers can create exciting lesson plans with mobile learning tools like remote collection and testing, backed by the protection of policy controls and the confidence that comes from using low-cost, highly-capable devices.
  • After-school programs and field trips become easier to manage; staff can respond faster and more effectively to off-campus incidents and changes in plan, while keeping parents in the loop.
  • Temporary classrooms and other remote learning centers can stay connected to the main campus and each other.

And with Verizon Wireless, you’re never more than one call or a few clicks away from our legendary customer and technical support.

How can I get these E-Rate discounts?

Verizon Wireless offers two convenient discount payment options you can use:

  • Automatic credit discounts to your monthly bills
  • BEAR check reimbursement

Your dedicated Account Manager can help you determine which option makes the most sense for your school or district — and develop a mobile learning and administration plan that’s perfect for your particular situation.
