Re: FCCJ Spring 2008

Your financial aid denial letter does sound confusing with the part regarding acceptance into the nursing program. Since you're there right now, I'll be anxious to hear how that turns out for you. Yes, my fingers are crossed for you!

Re: FCCJ Spring 2008

TDA88- I'd definitely call there. Did you read my earlier post? They sent me a denial letter last Friday, due to a computational mistake. Yesterday, I received my acceptance packet. I do think there's some issues in that Nursing office- and the staff were incredibly rude!!

The cut-off was 176.72, so if you had more points than that, you made it. (unless they screwed yours up like they did mine...)

I saw a post that mentioned an ins. company that would help pay for shots for nursing students.... do you have any more info on that?

Re: FCCJ Spring 2008

Ok- I went in to FCCJ Deerwood and spoke to Carolyn and then Elaine in Financial Aid. Just my luck, the dean was not in and she's the only one who can override her own denials. So I gave them a copy of my acceptance letter and they said they will give it to the dean (Margo Martin) She is supposed to call me tomorrow.

At 2:15 I attended the financial aid class (1 hour) that is required now if you want to take out a loan. After class, I was speaking to the instructor and informed him of my situation. He said that it was ridiculous and he felt like maybe they didn't know I was accepted? Anyway- he told me to email him my info and he will go to bat for me. Lucky break! So...I am pressing on, did my drug screen today, fingerprinting Friday, etc... I don't want any more hiccups in this process! We'll see. I will keep everyone posted!

Re: FCCJ Spring 2008

Amy,
It sounds like things are going to work out fine for you. I did my drug screening today, too, and also am doing my background check this Friday. What time is your appointment? Mine's at 1:30.

Re: FCCJ Spring 2008

I go to my fingerprinting at noon on Friday. (taking an extended lunch)

And I do my medical exam (physical, immunization, etc) tomorrow morning at my dr appt. I swear my boss is already over working with me on my schedule! Oh well.. this will be all of it until January.

Can I just say "THANKS" to all of you on this site. I swear this has been about the only reliable source of information. I don't know where I'd be (somewhere uninformed amd grumpy) without all of your input and info sharing!

Re: FCCJ Spring 2008

Hello, I got accepted into the daytime nursing program at FCCJ, and I was wondering how the first term schedule would be like? Does anybody know any previous term students who could pass on the info?

Thanks

i posted about this earlier...


if you want to get an idea of how your schedule may look like, right outside of the nursing office is a bulletin board with all of the schedules for 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th term fall 2007. you can't miss it, it's all neon colored paper -- yellow, pink, blue, and i think green!

p.s. everyone's schedule is different, some may go all days of the week, some may only go 3x a week

my schedule:

monday - 3:00-5:30pm TESTING

wednesday - 9:30am-12:00pm CONCEPTS; 1:00pm-4:00pm HEALTH ASSESSMENT

friday - 7:00am-2:30pm TECHNIQUES

pharmacology is online. rumor has it that all spring 08 students will be taking it online... scary!

and i think our clincals are from 7a-3:00 or 3:30pm
