The number of Financial Assistance awards available for each MMFin course in each Financial Assistance Cycle is limited. As such, the MMFin team prioritizes learners who demonstrate the strongest commitment to succeeding in the course using a set of eligibility criteria.
To be eligible for Financial Assistance for an MMFin course, learners must meet the following criteria:
- Submit a complete application during an Application Period
- Demonstrate that paying the Verified Certificate fee would cause them economic hardship
- Demonstrate they are capable of successfully passing the course
As part of the Application, learners will be required to declare their annual household income and answer a few questions explaining why they are applying for assistance and how obtaining the Verified Certificate will benefit them.
Learners must also complete and submit the first few Graded Problem Sets (homework assignments) from the course, and achieve high scores on each. In general, learners must earn a score of at least 80% on each of the first three assignments. (Note: the details of this requirement may sometimes vary between courses, but will always be communicated within the Courseware. Learners are responsible for understanding their specific courses' requirements)
Learners will be asked to choose one MMFin course to receive Financial Assistance for. Additional applications from the same learner during the same Application Period will be disregarded—only the first application will be considered for assistance. All Applications that do not meet the eligibility requirements will not be considered for Financial Assistance.
