Two Additional Steps

Once you have fully completed our admissions process, your enrollment is still incomplete.

Your enrollment as a Career Choice learner is not finalized until you have also completed two additional steps:

  1. Submitting your tuition payment request for our program, which will remain pending in our system until week 4 (This step must be completed before the first day of program- more info available below in FAQs.

    • There is unfortunately a limited amount of payment requests we can accept for each course, and requests are solely on a first-come, first-serve basis. Due to historically high demand, payment requests fill quickly.

    • Guidance regarding this step and info such as the confirmation code will be sent to you directly via email from careerchoice@meritamerica.org- Please keep an eye on your inbox for this!

  2. “Selecting your required, weekly squad time meeting before your program start

    • Squad meetings are required weekly sessions that will continue throughout the duration of your program

    • This step can be completed using a survey that will be available in the My Merit America portal once your profile is created and the survey is live. You will be notified when this step is available!”

Once both of these steps are complete and finalized, your admission into our program is fully secured and sponsored!

Note: If there is a point in this process in which we are unable to accept additional payment requests, or there are outstanding conflicts with your squad time, your admission will automatically default into our next available cohort. We will also stay in close communication during this process, so you can feel assured of the status of your current enrollment or future options.
