How students can benefit
School portals, learning apps and group projects increasingly rely on mobile access. A free phone or tablet gives students a way to check assignments and stay in touch with teachers. 
Who applies?
An adult in the household applies. If the household qualifies through SNAP, Medicaid or income, one Lifeline benefit is available. Review eligibility.
Phone or tablet for school?
A free government tablet is ideal for reading and homework, while a phone is better for calls and texts. Consider the combo offer where available.
