Financial Aid

Many students have received full or partial financial aid for program participation by approaching school and civic associations, such as the Chamber of Commerce, veterans’ groups, service clubs (including Kiwanis, Rotary, and Lions). Local businesses and corporations, through their public relations and community service offices, may offer sponsorship. A financial aid suggestion booklet is included with each acceptance letter.
