How could I get the TRA program to help pay for a nursing program.
I just lost my job, due that my company decided to relocated in another country. Due to this, I qualify for the TRA or TAA program for retraining. I would love to become a nurse or respiratory therapist, but it looks that they have a top maximum on how much they would pay, and they say I'm not allowed to pay with my own money or other kind of money if the program is more than that gap. Could I get grands or loans to pay for the difference? Please help! Does anyone have any ideas. Sencerely. FB
P.S. I read an artcle of male nurses that had the same problem, and it looks that TRA pay for their Nursing program.

Wed, 08/10/2011 - 7:34am — kpenderI went through the same thing with my previous employer. TAA currently pays for my nursing program and I am allowed to get the Pell Grant as a supplement for living expenses. Whatever Grant programs you can qualify for apply for as grants are not counted against you. Hope this helps and good luck!
