Am I eligible if I am graduating Dec 2026

[Guest1110]

If I apply when it opens August 1, 2025 would I be eligible if I am graduating Dec 2026?

What if I apply August 1 2026 and wait to graduate in May 2027 by switching my courses, would I be eligible?

You have to request a minimum of 1.0 academic year of support. So, you are not eligible for the 2026 cohort if you are graduating in Dec 2026 as that would only be 0.5 years (1 semester) of funding.

In the second scenario, you would be eligible for the 2027 cohort if you graduate in May 2027 as that would be 1.0 year (2 semesters) of support.
