Get Started with Student Financing That Works
Your Empty Seats Are a Missed Opportunity
If the lights are on and the instructor is teaching, every empty seat is costing you money. Let Atlas help you fill those seats.
Fixed Costs
Your instructors, space, and equipment cost the same with five students or fifteen. Empty seats drain profit.
Low Marginal Cost
Think small costs like test fees and packets. Since your core budget is fixed, each new student increases profit without increasing overhead.
We Handle the Rest
Atlas works with students that traditional lenders turn away. You enroll them. We handle the financing, and you get paid once they start their job.
