   kristilu replied to kristilu's topic in General Students

   Unfortunately, due to my credit score I am unable to obtain private lending. I am not working currently, but with a 4 week break coming up after spring semester I'm hoping to land a job. If that doesn't happen I don't know what I'll do. We have st...

2. Need summer tuition for Summer semester to continue!

   kristilu posted a topic in General Students

   I just found out that the student loans that I rec'd for the fall and spring semesters chewed up my funds so I cannot borrow for the summer semester. So, I'm looking for scholarships, other loans, etc to pay for my last semester of LVN school. Cann...
