I’m currently going through classes to convert, in the past I have heard that non-Catholics are able to get them, but I want to be 100% sure
 
The ashes are a sacramental, not a sacrament. Thus, anyone can receive them. So, yes you can. I did so myself 2 years ago when I was in RCIA waiting for Baptism. Welcome home!
 
Yes you can but I would go a step forward and get a good book meditating Lent.
 
Just a thought, if you’re going through RCIA, why not ask your RCIA director? Or the parish priest. Those sources are almost always more reliable than message boards.
