Programs Not Eligible for Financial Aid

Some programs are not eligible for financial aid programs, mostly because they are not college level, do not count toward a degree, or are too short to qualify. However, some of these programs may be eligible for other sources of assistance, such as WorkForce Grant, Worker Retraining Grant, Veterans Services, and Opportunity Grant.
