Our admissions team reviews every application by hand. You will hear from us within five working days, whatever the outcome. There is nothing else for you to do in the meantime.

We need additional information to confirm your work authorization eligibility.

Based on the information you provided, we were not able to confirm that your current work authorization documentation meets our policy. You may continue with your application, and our team will follow up with you if additional documentation is needed.

Depending on your circumstances, we may ask you to provide additional documentation showing that your work authorization remains valid, such as documentation of an automatic extension or a pending TPS or EAD application.

We will review the documentation you provide to determine whether you meet Per Scholas' Work Authorization Policy.

Based on the information you provided, we're unable to continue with your application because you do not currently meet one or more of Per Scholas' minimum eligibility requirements:

Based on the location you provided, Per Scholas does not currently offer a training program you are eligible to attend.

Where we can offer training may be limited by state requirements and program availability.

Per Scholas provides no-cost training to applicants who meet our Pre-Training Income Policy. Income limits are based on HUD guidelines and may vary based on your location and household circumstances.

Based on the annual income information you provided, your income is above the limit that applies to your application.

Per Scholas learners must be legally authorized to work in the United States and able to provide documentation that meets our work authorization policy.

Based on the information you provided, you do not currently meet this requirement. You may apply again in the future if your work authorization status changes and you meet the requirements in effect at that time.

Remote and hybrid Per Scholas training requires access to a computer that meets the minimum technology requirements for live instruction, assignments, and required course software.

Based on the information you provided, your current technology does not meet the requirements for the program you selected.

Because meeting minimum eligibility requirements does not guarantee admission, we do not recommend purchasing new equipment solely to apply to Per Scholas.

You may review the requirements and apply again if your access to appropriate technology changes.

Per Scholas applicants must have a high school diploma or equivalent, such as a GED, to enroll in training.

You may return and apply after earning your high school diploma or equivalent credential.

Per Scholas training programs have limited seats. Based on the program you selected, there is no space available at this time.

You may apply again when a new cohort opens.

Based on the information you provided, you do not currently meet one of our minimum eligibility requirements. Our admissions team will write to you with the details.
