EQUIPMENT
Do you own a computer? You need a laptop or desk top computer to attend the Zoom workshops and complete your assignments.
Do you have reliable internet at your home? If not, do you know where you can go to find a good internet connection?
Do you know how to attend online Zoom meetings? Please let us know if you will need help with this.

What is your combined household income? Please include income from everyone who works in your household. Scholarships are funded by United Way and they need this information. Please note, we may ask you to provide proof of income. All answers are kept in strict confidence.
Are you supporting anyone other than yourself? Please explain:
How did you hear about Bootstrap Business School?
