How to Apply

Form application open January 6th - 24th, 2025 5pm PT.

1. Check to see if you qualify:

  • Must meet low-income requirements established by the Office of Postsecondary Education.

    Example for the lower 48 states: Low-income level for a three person household is established at $38,730 (AGI).
  • Complete the required questions on the application form

2. Send us your tax Form 1040:

After you fill out the form, you will be automatically emailed a docusign to attach your tax Form 1040. W-2s will not be accepted. The form will need to show your name, address, and Adjusted Gross Income (AGI), which is typically located on line-11 of Form 1040. Students may go back as far as two years, so for 2024, we would accept either a 2022 or 2023 Form 1040.

  • Cannot be an NTP graduate.
  • Only submit one Form 1040.
  • W-2s will not be accepted.

Frequently Asked Questions

I am a active student in an NTP class, can I receive a grant retroactively?

No, the Graham Grant is for prospective students who have not yet started the program. If you're a newly enrolled student for an upcoming cycle, you may apply.

Can I submit my W-2 instead?

No. W-2s are not sufficient. The document must show your adjusted gross income, which is typically found on line 11 of your 1040.

Can I apply more than once?

You can apply once per enrollment cycle.

Can I apply if I am not a US resident?

Currently, the Graham Grant is being offered to US residents only.

What if I drop the program and don't defer to another session?

Each approved grant is a one-time qualification. If you accept the grant and then drop without deferring to another session, you will not be qualified to receive another Graham Grant.

How does the NTA determine if I qualify for a grant?

The Graham Grant Committee will review applicants after the application deadline on the objective criteria as explained on this page. Applicants will have one week to accept or decline their award.

When will I be notified if I qualify for the Graham Grant?

Applicants can expect to hear back regarding the status of their application within 2 weeks. Following the review of your application, you will be contacted by your Admissions Representative.

Can I receive a current promotion and the graham grant?

No. Graham Grant recipients will not qualify for current promotions and bundles.
