Merit America does not accept financial aid for our programs.
​
Here are the four ways you can cover your costs:

  1. $0 Down with a Zero Percent Loan from Ascent:
    Ascent Funding offers a Zero Percent Loan that you can use to pay for Merit America. You can learn more about the $0 Down With a Zero Percent Loan from Ascent at Ascent Funding.

  2. Sponsorship:
    Some employers or organizations may partially or fully cover the program costs for eligible learners. Any remaining amount can be covered with self-pay or a Zero Percent Loan. Reach out to your employer to see if they can sponsor your program costs.

  3. Pay in Full Up Front:
    If you prefer to pay the entire program cost upfront, please send an email to success-sharing@meritamerica.org requesting to pay in full.

  4. Opportunity For All:
    If you apply for an Ascent Zero Percent Loan and are denied due to debt or collections, are not sponsored by your employer, and cannot pay in full upfront, you can apply for the Opportunity for All Program, which will cover 100% of the cost for Merit America.
