Women Building Futures is committed to making training more accessible for those who qualify. With funding from our partners, eligible participants can access tuition-free programs as well as financial supports designed to reduce barriers and help them stay focused on achieving their career goals.

For Women Building Futures prospective students

If you are looking for support in navigating student funding for any of our specific programs please contact admissions@womenbuildingfutures.com and an advisor will be able to help you through the process.

Students & graduates

We have a variety of financial supports, scholarships and awards that are available based on achievement, academic excellence and financial need.

Please see the full listing of our financial support offerings below. 

General financial aid 

Whether it’s covering tuition, supplies or helping with day-to-day living expenses and unexpected financial setbacks, our goal is to ensure our students are equipped with the essential resources they need to thrive in our programs.  

This funding may also help students with additional financial support, such as income, childcare, health benefits and learning supply costs. Students in other programs have access to financial aid provided by our employer sponsors. 

If an individual is not eligible for this funding, Women Building Future may be able to support women enrolled in these programs through internal funding sources. We encourage applicants to reconnect with their advisor to explore alternative funding options that may be available.

To learn more about your eligibility, please contact admissions@womenbuildingfutures.com and one of our advisors will be able to support you through this process.  

Emergency funding

We have emergency funding available for students to access financial support for unforeseen circumstances while completing a program. If you are a current student and require emergency financial aid, please connect with your Class Lead for details.
