At Merit America, we focus on equipping adults with the skills needed to begin a new career in an entry-level position. We encourage you to choose the program that aligns best with your specific career goals. You can only apply for and complete one program. Our programs are designed to be standalone, meaning they do not build upon each other.

We are committed to providing a comprehensive experience tailored to your chosen program, ensuring you receive the necessary skills and support for a successful transition into your desired field.

As an organization, we are dedicated to making our program as accessible and supportive as possible. To uphold this commitment, we’ve launched our Device Grant program to provide learners with the necessary devices before the program begins. This ensures a strong start and sets you up for success from day one. Explore our FAQ page to learn more.

If you were not selected for the program of your choice after completing any stage of the admissions process, we encourage you to try again!

You will be eligible to reapply after a period of 14 days. To determine your new eligibility date, or to reapply, please reach out to us at admissions@meritamerica.org.
