Documents we may ask for later (not needed to start)

Documentation we may review together

You don't need every document to start — nothing uploads on this page. If we move forward together, we sometimes ask for:

  • Government-issued photo ID
  • Proof of income or unemployment status (pay stub, unemployment letter, or self-certification)
  • Work authorization (if not a US citizen)
  • Social Security card or number (for tax reporting)

Don't worry if you don't have everything right now — our team will help.

Quick eligibility check + how to reach you

Answer several questions first to estimate funding fit. Then share your contact details so we can follow up. Next you'll choose programs (step 2) and create your login (step 3).

These questions do not automatically accept or deny you. If you're between situations, slightly over the threshold, or unsure how to answer, continue anyway — we review real-life circumstances individually, consistent with our FAQ.

What happens next: Step 2 is program selection. Step 3 creates your account so we can save your choice, review your application, and follow up.

Part 1 of 3: Funding questions

Employment status

Are you currently unemployed, working part-time when you want full-time work, or in a job that pays below what your skills or training should command (underemployed)?

Unemployment benefits

Are you currently receiving unemployment insurance benefits?

Unemployment benefits exhausted

Have you exhausted (used up) your unemployment benefits?

Household income

Is your household's total annual income below $60,000 before taxes?

TANF / WIC / Food stamps / MAP

Are you receiving TANF, WIC, Food stamps (SNAP), and/or MAP?

Work authorization

Are you in the United States with permission to work here (for example, U.S. citizen, permanent resident, or other valid work authorization)?

Optional — your most recent employer, or the company you were laid off from if that applies.

By continuing you agree to our Privacy Policy and Terms.

Complete the section above, then continue. If you're unsure on a question, pick the closest option — an advisor can clarify when we follow up.
