How to Apply for Coursera Financial Aid:

The core of your application is the form! You'll need to provide info on:

  • 📝 A clear picture of your financial circumstances.

These are straightforward, short-answer prompts, similar to what you might find on scholarship or university applications. Consider it practice!

1️⃣ Find the Financial Aid Option:

  • * Head to the Coursera course page you're eyeing.
  • * Scroll down to the FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) section.

📚 Financial Aid for Specializations:

  • * You need to submit a separate application for EACH COURSE within the Specialization.

💸 Understanding the Financial Aid You Can Receive:

The aid amount granted can vary based on your individual application and location.
