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.

Step 1 of 3 — your details & eligibility

Join members building their careers

About 3 minutes · save and finish later on this device

Quick eligibility check + how to reach you

Answer three quick 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 is account creation so we can save your choice and follow up within 1–2 business days.
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)?

Household income

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

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)?

How we reach you

10-digit US number — your counselor uses this for follow-ups and application updates.

Eligibility screening details

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 — a counselor can clarify when we follow up.
