Fortify Tuition Assistance

Tuition Overview

Flexible Financing for Your Training

Latinas Welding Guild partners with Fortify to help eligible students access flexible financing options for workforce training.

If paying tuition upfront isn’t possible, Fortify may provide financing that allows you to make affordable monthly payments while you complete your training and prepare for employment.

Our goal is to help you find the funding option that’s right for you—not simply direct you to financing.


Who May Benefit from Fortify?

Fortify financing may be an option for eligible:

  • Adults pursuing workforce training or career advancement
  • Opportunity Youth (ages 16–24)
  • Parents or legal guardians enrolling a youth participant in an eligible program

Because every student’s situation is unique, eligibility and financing options vary by program and individual circumstances.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to complete the LWG Program Intake Form first?

Yes. Every student must complete the LWG Program Intake Form before being considered for Fortify financing. The intake process helps us understand your goals, recommend the appropriate training program, and discuss available funding options.


Is everyone eligible for Fortify financing?

Not necessarily. Fortify financing may not be the best option for every student. During your intake process, LWG will review your goals and discuss the funding opportunities that may be available, including scholarships, grants, workforce funding, employer sponsorships, or Fortify financing.


Does completing a Fortify application guarantee approval?

No. Completing a Fortify application does not guarantee financing or enrollment. Latinas Welding Guild reviews each student’s enrollment pathway, and Fortify determines financing eligibility according to its application requirements.


Will Fortify check my credit?

Depending on the financing option, Fortify may review your credit as part of the application process. Our team will explain what to expect before you apply.


Can I still apply for scholarships or other funding?

Absolutely. We encourage every student to explore all available funding opportunities. Depending on your situation, you may qualify for scholarships, grants, workforce funding, employer sponsorships, or Fortify financing.
