Financial Aid for Certification Programs?

I'm working towards my undegrad, but in the meantime I thought that I could bang-out an IT certification program in a few months to make some decent money while I finish up my degree. The sticker price on the program is $16,000 after exam costs.

Are there any federal loans/grants that are offered for such programs?

1. 1) Generally you have to be admitted into a degree-seeking program in order to receive financial aid.

2) If you are receiving financial aid at the school you are currently in (undergrad), you may not be eligible to receive aid at the second school.

Talk with the financial aid adviser at the certification school. They would be able to tell you if their program was eligible for you to receive aid. Make sure they know that you are receiving aid at your undergrad school (if that is the case).
