Financial Aid, Grants & Scholarships
A QUALITY TECHNICAL EDUCATION IS WITHIN REACH
Lincoln Tech schools are committed to helping you manage your investment in career training by providing a
number of options for assistance through grants, scholarships, work-study programs, loans and other financial
aid programs.
Current high school seniors may also be eligible to compete for additional academic awards available at
each of our campuses across the country. And we’re proud to partner, through the Lincoln Foundation
for Education (LiFE), with organizations like the Gene Haas Foundation and the Bridgestone Foundation
to provide scholarships that can assist people who may want to pursue career training but are facing
financial struggles.
