State allocation

Be aware that Project 10Million hotspots and internet access are allocated across the United States and Puerto Rico based on population each year over the next five school years.

If your state has reached its allocation for the year, it’s possible that your school is already working to get you connected through Project 10Million for Schools, so please check with your school’s principal or counselor.
