Approval Tiers

Tier 1 — Standard Approval

Students in this tier qualify for our simplest terms with no co‑signer required.

Tier 2 — Co‑Signer Assisted Approval

This tier assists students who may benefit from a little extra financial support. With a qualified co‑signer, students can access our assisted payment plan which will help those building credit or needing additional stability.

Tier 3 — Enhanced Support Approval

This tier is designed for students who are just beginning their financial journey or rebuilding credit. With a co‑signer and a slightly higher initial commitment, students can still move forward and begin their training. This enhanced pathway ensures everyone has the opportunity to pursue a rewarding new career.

Flexible Payment Options (Available to All Students)

Every approved student can choose the payment length that best fits their budget and goals. These options are completely independent of the approval tiers, giving you the freedom to design a plan that works for your life. Monthly tuition payments are due on the 1st day of the month and begin on the first month of the program start or sooner if desired.

Payment Options

  • Full Upfront Payment — Students who pay their full tuition upfront receive a 5% discount on the total program cost prior to the first day of class. This option is perfect for those who want the lowest overall price and a simple, one‑time payment.

  • 12‑Month Payment Plan — Interest free option with equal monthly payments.

  • 18 months — Ideal for students who want to pay off tuition sooner.

  • 24 months — A balanced option with extended monthly payments.

  • 36 months — Perfect for students who prefer the lowest monthly payment.

How It Works

Once you’re approved under Tier 1, Tier 2, or Tier 3, you may select any of the payment lengths above. This flexible structure ensures that every student can move forward with confidence, regardless of their financial starting point.
