Continuing Education offers the following financial aid options:
Continuing Education Loans
There are financial institutions that provide loan options to students needing educational financial assistance. Loans may include tuition, and in some cases, lenders may allow students to borrow additional funds to cover the cost of tuition to cover expenses such as books, supplies, and transportation. Loan applicants may be required to have a co-signer, and the loan interest rate will vary according to an applicant’s credit rating.

Employer Education Vouchers
Employer educational or tuition vouchers can be used to pay for enrollment. The voucher must clearly state the student’s name, the employer’s name and address, the class(es) to enroll the student in, and the total amount approved. Course enrollment will be made once the voucher is received. Continuing Education will then invoice the employer for payment.
Continuing Education does not accept vouchers with restrictions, such as “will not pay until course is over” or “must make a C or better.”
To access additional information about vouchers, purchase orders and invoicing, visit our website at ccpe.kennesaw.edu. Select Registration – Policies – Invoice Policy for specific instructions.
