Does anyone know any financial aid opportunities for pet grooming certification?

Question

I have been working with pet groomers for several years, and am interested in becoming a groomer myself. I know that the best thing to do to get ahead in the grooming business is to get certified, and I would love to. However, certification programs where I live (New York City) cost anywhere from $3000-$6000, and that's just not something I'm able to afford. Does anyone know of any grants or financial aid options that I might utilise to help me get my certification? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Noni... generally the financial aid options are correlated with the educational institution.  Consider contacting the grooming school where you'd like to attend and they can provide this information whether or not it is available.
