Financial Aid

Several organizations offer special loan packages to help students complete a professional certificate.

Financial aid programs such as the HOPE Scholarship, Pell Grant, Stafford Loan or the HOPE Grant are only available to students attending credit courses. Continuing Education courses with KSU are non-credit and do not lead to a college degree, and therefore we are unable to process these traditional forms of financial aid.

Special loan packages through non-profit and for-profit organizations are listed below. Each organization offers different loan plans and features.

Before selecting a loan program, research which financing options best meet your needs. Be careful to weigh the advantages and disadvantages of each available choice as programs vary in repayment timelines, APRs, and more.
