$977,451 expired unused last cycle. This budget pays for Wi-Fi, switches, cabling and firewalls through June 2030, and at your discount E-rate would pay about $471,916 of it. To use it for funding year 2027, post a bid request (Form 470), wait 28 days, choose a vendor, and file your application in the 2027 window, expected January to March. The 2027 dates are not announced yet, so posting by early January is safest and late February is the practical limit.
E-Rate Keeper prepares each of these for you and tracks every date. Or turn on the free deadline alerts.
Your 2026 application names Allen & Allen Consulting LLC; Federal Funding Advisors, LLC.
What you pay them is not in USAC's data; it is in your board's approved contract. For comparison, the Senate Commerce Committee found most schools pay $5,000 to $15,000 a year. If your contract is a percentage of funding at the 6% to 10% the Committee found, your $117,120 for 2025 would mean $7,027 to $11,712 in fees.
E-Rate Keeper is $1,995 a year, flat.
