USAC on Pace for Record FY2014 Payments

Funds For Learning estimates that as much as $1.77 billion could be disbursed for Funding Year 2014 Priority One services, representing an all-time high for the E-rate program. As of October 14, 2015, $1.39 billion has been disbursed for FY2014 with another $882 million in potentially disbursable funding commitments.
