Does Muslim Academy of Greater Orlando accept the Florida scholarship in Orange County?
Yes. On October 28, 2026, the Florida Department of Education directory carries Muslim Academy of Greater Orlando as a participant in the Florida Tax Credit / Family Empowerment Scholarship (FTC/FES-EO) program, so an Orange County household can direct the state award to this school: $8,420 per student in grades K-3; $7,831 per student in grades 4-8 for 2026-27, delivered to the school each quarter by way of EMA.
Muslim Academy of Greater Orlando carries the state's Unique Abilities (FES-UA) participant flag. Under FES-UA's base tier, an Orange County student with a qualifying diagnosis or IEP gets $10,584 in K-3, $9,995 in 4-8 or $9,803 in 9-12, and it can fund therapy and tutoring too.
The school enrolls pre-K, so ask if it is an approved VPK provider and takes School Readiness child care help; the Early Learning Coalition of Orange County keeps that list.
The state scholarship treats a school from any faith tradition the same way, and many such schools add community-funded help toward whatever tuition remains.
In the 2026 state survey the school counted 411 students; that ranks Muslim Academy of Greater Orlando 2nd by size among the 24 schools in Dr. Phillips & Hunter's Creek that gave an enrollment figure.
