Meritize is a New Financing Option Available to Students at Carolina Construction School

Students enrolled in Carolina Construction School who need tuition or financial assistance will now have access to an innovative new financing option to pay for their courses, thanks to our partnership with the Meritize platform.The new financing option will help Students finance their careers in Heavy Equipment Operator and Commercial Truck Driver Training courses.

Overall employment of heavy equipment operators is projected to grow 5 percent from now to 2031.About 50,800 openings are projected each year, on average, over the decade.Many of those openings are expected to result from the need to replace workers who transfer to different occupations or exit the labor force, such as to retire.The 2021 Median Pay for heavy equipment operators was $48,290 per year.

Employment of heavy and tractor-trailer truck drivers is projected to grow 4 percent from now to 2031.About 259,900 openings for heavy and tractor-trailer truck drivers are projected each year, on average, over the decade. Many of those openings are expected to result from the need to replace workers who transfer to different occupations or exit the labor force, such as to retire.
The 2021 Median Pay for Truck Drivers was $48,310 per year.

Unlike traditional lenders that rely solely on FICO scores, and other financial records to determine whether to lend to an individual. the Meritize platform considers the full depth of an individual’s academic or military achievements to enhance credit evaluation and potentially improve loan options.

Because the new financing option considers previous academic or military experiences, merit-based financing may provide a significant source of financial and credit assistance for students who are self-financing their Certificate/Credential.
