Alternative Application

When you need more than F&R Apps!

Maximize funding for District programs by facilitating household income information gathering

Our online alternative application makes it easy for parents to submit household income information for school benefits. It is very similar to our ApplyNOW online Free and Reduced applications .

• Customizable online step by step wizard
• Integrates with SIS
• Access online with computer or tablet
• Identifies non‐respondents for additional mailings or emails
• Reports for Administrators
• Custom export formats

The Alternative Application helps districts to record and document much needed information, in order to access important funding and benefits, when Free and Reduced applications are not being used, for example:

• Community Eligibility Schools (CEP)
• SFSP/SSO (FSFFCRA emergency feeding)
• During Pandemic EBT (P-EBT)
• And future statewide free meal initiatives
