Hello Rhoda! Your video had been a tremendous help to me last year when I was trying to apply for financial aid on Coursera to earn a certificate in Google Data Analytics. I'm happy to tell you that I was provided financial aid for more than 10 courses and I've also been able to earn the Professional Data Analyst Badge. Thank you so much for such useful content !
Hello Rhoda. I did a search and your video was the first to come up on my search result. I am super excited to see you because I remember you vividly. We went to secondary school together (AFCS). You were a class ahead of me. I'm really happy to see your video on here. I'll definitely subscribe as you have content I'm interested in.
Hi Rhoda, I can't thank you enough for this video. I've been scouring for ways to apply for free online course and your video makes it easier for me. Thanks 👍
Hi Rhoda...your video was of tremendous help... thank you so much.....I got the financial aid scholarship...however, it's a 90% discount. Is there any way to access it totally for free?
Please I already applied for my financial aid and even started the course But right now just after taking the quiz They are asking I pay before I get my certificate What should I do ?
Hello 👋 , Please i followed your instructions and every time I click on the submit application button, an error message appears. I have no idea what’s wrong. Please help me.🙏🏻
@@RhodaOlabisi hello, wanna ask why is it that at times they only give me something like 75% or 90% financial aid and what can I do under such circumstances to receive 100% financial aid
Hi olabisi, my financial aid in Neuroscience science for neuroimaging..i followed your advice here..thank you very much. But I want to know if I will get a certification after each course completion
Thank you very much. I followed through with your video and I got the financial aid for Data Analytics. I'll like to ask though, do I need to keep applying for the other stages of the course, or the first financial aid covers all? I have started the course BTW 😁😁
Anyway I have a question as well, I've tried paying for a course on cousera using my local bank and the payment was unsuccessful. I did a google search for options and the only one I could find was to pay using a virtual dollar card. It sounds ridiculous to create one just for this purpose and suffer the burden of the bank charges for as long as the card exists. Please do you have any advice on any alternate solutions? (This video is also helpful. I'll be applying for financial aid subsequently. Thank you)
Great video! What if I really intend to pay for the subscription, can it be possible to make the payment via my local bank card? If not how do I go about it?
Thanks for this video. I applied for a course under a specialization using my student campus plan 1 free course/yr slot and now I want to apply for financial aid for the whole specialization, will that be possible?
I got accepted to the financial aid and today I finished the course but I Don't know how to get the certificate cuz whenever I click on purchase certificate they ask me to pay
If you are seeing the option to purchase after getting financial aid. The problem could be that the financial aid had expired before you completed the course.
Thanks for this content 🙏🏻 i have a question I'm thankful if you help me with it. I'm waiting for my financial aid approval but i want to know is it possible to start the course until the approval?
@@RhodaOlabisi thanks for the reply 🙏🏻🌺 I'm so confused cause some of my friends are waiting for their approval and they started on audit mode. Actually after i sent my financial aid application, i received massage from Coursera that said I can start the course Audit. But i wasn't sure what would be the result so i didn't choose it.
@@AyomideDesignsOfficial yes you can view the course in audit mode but can't really go far as you need to do submit the end of week assignment which requires the approval of your financial aid (my own experience)
When applying for Coursera financial aid for a professional course consisting of 8 sub-courses, is it possible to receive financial aid for all 8 courses, or will Coursera determine which courses to provide financial aid for?
When I want to apply for the financial aid ..after answering the questions and Everything once I press submit application it takes me back to those questions asked why are you applying for financial aid..and my answers are even more than 200 words...what do I do?
You may want to try submitting your application via the web instead of the Coursera app. Also, I think it should be fine if your answer is a little bit above 200 words, but ideally, it should be a maximum of 200 words.
I started a course with Coursera but I didn't know that they give financial aid. So what if after I paid for the previous course I did and then I want to take another course Will I be eligible to apply for financial aid now that I know?
Hi Rhoda, I decided to apply for financial aid and when I decided to submit, it kept on bribing out submission error 🥺🥺. What do you think I should do ?
Hello Rhoda, please I want to apply for google UX design professional certification and it’s closing today 28th but I can’t find any slot for the financial aid on the page, can you kindly look if it’s available for that course?
After my I got my financial aid.. I did my first week lesson and it's saying I should enroll for my with money though my first week challenge ends by 9th of this month...is suppose to work that way
i submit it but the approval comes after the endline for enrolment. so it means everytime i want to do a course i have to look for the farther endline so that they have the time to answer?!
If you are requesting a financial aid for the audit course you already started, then yes you can’t apply for aid for the course in question. Please check here for more clarification - th-cam.com/video/NoBx4k9KGUc/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for this piece. I was about to pay for a course before I stumbled on your video. it's really helpful. I have applied for financial aid I hope it will be granted. If I may ask how much financial aid can I apply for at a time?
Hello Rhoda. Thanks for this video. Please, I've completed a part of the course, then while applying for the second part. while submitting my application I saw an option to start immediately and I picked it. While on the course, I was trying to submit an assessment then I was asked to pay. Then I wanted to re-apply for the course but the financial aid option is no longer there. What do you advise I do?
Hi Damilola, usually you can’t submit financial aid applications once you have started the course. So, you may want to reach Coursera for support on that.
If your certificate is composed of 5 courses Is it possible to apply like 3 courses right away? Or you need to apply one and get a feedback and and apply for the second until 5 is full
You have to apply for financial aid for each course. Also, I think it is better to complete each course before applying for the next course because I am not sure if multiple applications are allowed.
Please during my registration, I forgot to remove the amount on the " how much can you afford to pay for this course" , please does this mean that I have to pay the stipulated amount?🥺🥺
Thanks for this video. I applied for a course under a specialization using my student campus plan 1 free course/yr slot and now I want to apply for financial aid for the whole specialization, will that be possible?

Hi Rhoda...your video was of tremendous help... thank you so much.....I got the financial aid scholarship...however, it's a 90% discount. Is there any way to access it totally for free?
It seems coursera free courses work on laptops only
Please I already applied for my financial aid and even started the course
But right now just after taking the quiz
They are asking I pay before I get my certificate
What should I do ?
SAME IS HAPPENING TO ME,
Please can I apply on the coursera app on my phone ?
This was quite insightful Rhoadie.👍🏻
Awesome!
I am glad you find it useful.
Thanks dear this was helpful
Hi Rhoda,
How to apply financial aid?
Hi thanks for the tips. I have applied for financial aid and 90% has being approved and I am asked to pay to start the course. Please help out.
Hello 👋 , Please i followed your instructions and every time I click on the submit application button, an error message appears. I have no idea what’s wrong. Please help me.🙏🏻
Please send me a direct message.
Hi rhoda, pls if i already subscribed and taken courses can i still apply for financial aid??
Thank you. This was helpful.
You are welcome! 😁
Yayyy! This is beautiful? However, Is the financial aid limited? I mean, can you stop being entitled to it after applying for a particular number?
No, you can apply for as many times as you need.
@@RhodaOlabisi hello, wanna ask why is it that at times they only give me something like 75% or 90% financial aid and what can I do under such circumstances to receive 100% financial aid
Hi olabisi, my financial aid in Neuroscience science for neuroimaging..i followed your advice here..thank you very much.
But I want to know if I will get a certification after each course completion
Hello, my first name is Rhoda. Yes, you will get a certificate on completion of each course
@@RhodaOlabisi Thank you Rhoda.
Thank you very much. I followed through with your video and I got the financial aid for Data Analytics. I'll like to ask though, do I need to keep applying for the other stages of the course, or the first financial aid covers all? I have started the course BTW 😁😁
Hello, I’m glad you got the financial aid! Yes, you have to apply for each course, it doesn’t cover all.
Can you apply for each of the sub courses at once or I have to finish the one that got approved before I apply again
do they fully cover the cost of the program?
Is it possible to apply for two financial aid for different courses at once?
thanks baby my application has been approved I love you
😅 You are welcome
Thanks a lot for this. Really helpful and timely.🙏
You are welcome!
Here’s me coming back to thank you, Miss Rhoda for this eye opener.
I got 2 of my approvals today.
Thanks a lot.
Please sir I want steps I can’t anderstand all video

The alternative way to pay on Coursera from Nigeria is to use a GTB Dollar Mastercard. I am not sure if other bank cards work on there.
Thanks for the video
Great video! What if I really intend to pay for the subscription, can it be possible to make the payment via my local bank card? If not how do I go about it?
You need a dollar card to make payment from Nigeria
Thank you so much Rhoda. I just applied for a course but found out another was better and suits my needs more. Can I apply for the later also?
Yes, you can submit as many financial aid application as you need.
@@RhodaOlabisi Thank you so much
Great content you've got here
Well done 👍
What screen recorder do you use please?
Thank you. I use Loom.
@@RhodaOlabisiOkay, noted 😊
Very helpful thanks
Hi Rhoda. Good day. Please is it possible to apply for financial aid with a mobile phone? As I don’t have a laptop right now
Yes, you can.
What is the website
Please thanks for the information, but my question is can I apply for more than 2 courses with the same information and essays?
Yes, I l believe so.
Must it be 150 words
Maybe not exactly but it has to be close.
Thanks for this video. I applied for a course under a specialization using my student campus plan 1 free course/yr slot and now I want to apply for financial aid for the whole specialization, will that be possible?
Yes sure. But you have to submit an application for each course within the specialization.
@@RhodaOlabisi can I use the same “write-up" for all the courses in the specialization?
Yes, I believe so
I got accepted to the financial aid and today I finished the course but I Don't know how to get the certificate cuz whenever I click on purchase certificate they ask me to pay
If you are seeing the option to purchase after getting financial aid. The problem could be that the financial aid had expired before you completed the course.
Thanks for this content 🙏🏻 i have a question I'm thankful if you help me with it. I'm waiting for my financial aid approval but i want to know is it possible to start the course until the approval?
No, you can’t start the course. You have to wait till your financial aid is approved.
@@RhodaOlabisi thanks for the reply 🙏🏻🌺 I'm so confused cause some of my friends are waiting for their approval and they started on audit mode. Actually after i sent my financial aid application, i received massage from Coursera that said I can start the course Audit. But i wasn't sure what would be the result so i didn't choose it.
@@merrb3551 Hello. You can audit the course pending approval of the financial aid
If Coursera says so, then you should.
@@AyomideDesignsOfficial yes you can view the course in audit mode but can't really go far as you need to do submit the end of week assignment which requires the approval of your financial aid (my own experience)
When applying for Coursera financial aid for a professional course consisting of 8 sub-courses, is it possible to receive financial aid for all 8 courses, or will Coursera determine which courses to provide financial aid for?
Please how far did you try this?? Did it work? I want to apply for the sub courses but I don't know if they'd approve all
Yeah, it works. Apply for the courses individually.
When I want to apply for the financial aid ..after answering the questions and Everything once I press submit application it takes me back to those questions asked why are you applying for financial aid..and my answers are even more than 200 words...what do I do?
You may want to try submitting your application via the web instead of the Coursera app. Also, I think it should be fine if your answer is a little bit above 200 words, but ideally, it should be a maximum of 200 words.
Who HAS gotten the funds from courseera and how how long does it take
They don’t give you funds. The financial aid grants you free access to the course(s).
I started a course with Coursera but I didn't know that they give financial aid.
So what if after I paid for the previous course I did and then I want to take another course
Will I be eligible to apply for financial aid now that I know?
Yes, you can apply for financial aid for other courses.
Hi Rhoda, I decided to apply for financial aid and when I decided to submit, it kept on bribing out submission error 🥺🥺.
What do you think I should do ?
Hi Karamel, if you are using the app it will show you a submission error. Try to submit via the web instead.
@@RhodaOlabisi thank you so much. I’ll try again and let you know how it goes ❤️
@@RhodaOlabisi hi, I tried doing it through the web but I can't find a financial aid option,vwhat do you think the problem is?
Hello Rhoda, please I want to apply for google UX design professional certification and it’s closing today 28th but I can’t find any slot for the financial aid on the page, can you kindly look if it’s available for that course?
Hi Shayo, there is financial aid available for the course. I am currently looking at it. Try refreshing and/or send me a DM.
I followed your instructions and when I submit the application an error message appears
Try to submit it via the web instead of the app.
Is the financial aid application to all courses in coursera
No
Can you apply without a laptop
Yes
hi Rhoda is it possible to apply for financial aid more than one time and get approved?
Yes, definitely
You can apply for the financial aid as many times as you need.
This face looks familiar
Samuel Olabisi’s Sister?
Yes 😅
Omo Nigeria na small place now oo😂
I am working so can I mention full time employed or is it necessary to choose student?
No, you don’t have to choose the student option. I used that as an example.
What about data science courses I will like to apply for it
You can check if financial aid is available for the course.
@@RhodaOlabisi it's doesn't have financial aid but if I won't to pay, is that I will convert the money to dollar or I will just pay it with naira
After my I got my financial aid.. I did my first week lesson and it's saying I should enroll for my with money though my first week challenge ends by 9th of this month...is suppose to work that way
Are you sure you haven’t elapsed the duration of the scholarship? If you haven’t, you may have to contact Coursera for support.
hello is there a maximum number of financial aid?
No, there isn’t.
i submit it but the approval comes after the endline for enrolment. so it means everytime i want to do a course i have to look for the farther endline so that they have the time to answer?!
The deadline does not affect your learning. Coursera is self paced.
Does the financial aid guarantee issuing of certificate
Yes, it does. Provided you complete your course before the deadline allocated to you.
Does starting a course in audit form while waiting for your financial aid affect your application??
If you are requesting a financial aid for the audit course you already started, then yes you can’t apply for aid for the course in question. Please check here for more clarification - th-cam.com/video/NoBx4k9KGUc/w-d-xo.html

Thank you, Adedayo! There is no limit to the number of applications you can submit.
This is gold. Truly, information is power.
I couldn’t agree more!
Nice information
Thank you
May i ask if i already started the free trial i cannot apply for scholarship after the 7 days trial over?
Yes. If you start the free trial, you can't apply for the scholarship.
@@RhodaOlabisi Thanks for replying. I do find it’s very odd they make it that way, they expect poor people to not try the free trial first 😂
Can I unenroll and ask for financial aid?
No. If you have enrolled for the course, there is no going back to ask for financial aid.
@@RhodaOlabisi Thank you, I want to use another of my email and do that. Is possible right?
Can you use the same template to apply for other financial aid courses ?
I guess so.
