Federal Financial Aid for Nontraditional Students
Nontraditional students earning nontraditional credentials from nontraditional schools may think their financial aid options are limited. Think again.
The Basics
Here’s the truth: Federal financial aid is available to those enrolled in eligible programs at accredited schools that participate in federal financial aid programs.
Let’s break that down. An eligible program is one that leads to an academic, professional, or vocational degree or certificate, or other recognized educational credential. You read right — nontraditional students enrolled in trade schools and certificate programs qualify!
