Project 10Million is an initiative aimed at delivering internet connectivity to millions of underserved student households at no cost. Partnering with school districts across the country, the program offers free high-speed data and free mobile hotspots.

As education has evolved to make digital and hybrid learning the norm for millions of students across the U.S., the Un-carrier continues to enhance Project 10Million to offer low-cost data options, including unlimited data passes, for school districts to pass on to student households at no cost to them.

And we’re offering schools a low-cost unlimited option, too. All options are available on our Un-carrier network—making no cost internet a reality for students.

School districts can apply on behalf of their students to participate. Based on the proportion of students eligible for the National School Lunch Program (NSLP), Project 10Million offers discounted data options, including unlimited data together with free lines receiving 20GBs/month of free data. Plus all plans, including free line, include a free mobile hotspot. Hotspots in the program can connect to multiple devices within the student household.

We will continue to enhance Project 10Million to offer at-cost data options, including unlimited, for school districts to pass on to all of their students at no cost to them.

Note: Students or parents (of students) who wish to enroll should talk to their school administrator (Principal or Counsellor) to see if their school district is participating in Project 10Million.

• If your school district is already signed up, work with your school administrator to see if your child is eligible.
• If your district hasn’t signed up, talk to your school administrator about starting the application process.

Program enhancement for select schools may be available. For eligibility information please contact project10millionsupport@t-mobile.com

In education and the ever more connected world, students’ lack of access to reliable connectivity creates a divide between students who have reliable internet access at their fingertips and those who do not. This gap is the difficulty those without reliable connectivity face in completing assignments and communicating with teachers and peers after the school day is done. It creates serious short and long-term impacts: lower test scores, lower grades and limited opportunities after graduation.

Today, nearly 1 in 4 American households do not have reliable home internet. Of this population, students are among those hit hardest, with recent data estimating upwards of 12 million students are without home Internet. In rural America where internet options can be limited, the gap grows wider. In a recent study on students across the nation, 24% of teens who live in lower income households say they at least sometimes are not able to complete their homework because they do not have reliable access to a computer or internet connection.

• Certain non-educational video streaming sites
• Inappropriate websites
• Restricting minors' access to materials deemed harmful to them

Note: Schools have the option to utilize the T-Mobile filtering or secure their own filter that completes their needs.

Access to the Internet equals access to opportunity. In education, studies show that students without reliable access to the Internet outside of school hours consistently receive lower reading, math, and science scores. This changes drastically when students have equal access to connectivity.

A mobile Wi-Fi hotspot turns a cellular data connection into a Wi-Fi connection. The device creates a wireless connection you can use to connect a tablet, smartphone, computer, or another Wi-Fi-enabled device.

With the power of the growing Un-Carrier network, T-Mobile promises to make reliable connectivity truly accessible to students, including those in both urban centers as well as underserved areas such as rural America.
