Hillsborough Community College Fall 2012

I'm good, just being patient! Good luck!!

Startingovragain,

Have you already filled out your FASFA to find out what your EFC is? That will make a big difference on what aid you qualify for. The lower it is, the more free aid you get and the more low interest loans you qualify for. That would be the first thing I would advise doing. There are lots of grants and loans available, but it just depends on what you qualify for in your particular situation.

Personally, I'm paying out of pocket in cash. I have enough loans from a previous stint in college and sure don't need anymore! :)

leepoffaith & startingovragain,

if your efc is low enough, you could look into the nursing scholarship. You have to agree to work at a low income hospital, or other needy area, but you get a great deal of scholarship money.

Ok all they have now posted my documents and cashed my check!!! It's states consent and app received but that my prerequisites are needed ASAP......so I'm hoping that is just part of the waiting process, because they are completed. Just and update I'm so excited to hear something now!! Anyone applying to Dale Mabry days??

It should only be "needed asap" a day or so until they process everything. Same thing happened to me. SS for me.

Thanks for the info Brande! Personally, I don't like accepting money on a requirement to work somewhere. Once we graduate you never know what type of opportunities may come around and I don't want to pigeon hole myself. :)

Hi everyone, I applied to Plant City-Nights.. if I get accepted it will be a rough 2 years.. but it'll be worth it. My gpa was a 3.5 something.. so we will see. Good luck to everyone. From what I've heard this is the best time to apply for the best chances... and if the number of people on here reflect that there won't be as many applicants then hopefully we all get accepted :)

I am new to this and forgive me if this is a dumb question. Where do you find out if they have received everything. I've attended SPC and applied to HCC to see if I have a better chance at getting accepted. They cashed the check last week but I can not find anything online about transcripts, records, etc. Good luck to everyone!:)

If you go to webadvisor and sign in, one of the options is My Documents, it shows what the have/need. Also, if you go to Progress Toward Degree you should see Nursing Student as an option.

Thank you. There isn't anything there. I don't understand how they can cash your check and not have your information in the system. Maybe in a few weeks. :)

They tend to be a little slow at updating, lol. I wouldn't worry if they've cashed your check. My guess is it'll show up on there within the next few days. Good luck! :)

We only have a month and a half left of waiting for an answer! Woohoo!!!!
