Hondros in Cincinnati

Hi Catrat!

The last thing that I heard (West Chester, anyway) was that they were trying to get all of the financial aid by the end of July. Hopefully, it will be the same for you!

Thank you! Well, at least they're telling you something! We've had so many different stories from the government changing software to them having to redo everyone's financial aid packages. I called financial aid today and was told that the gov't has used the same software for 10 years and it's not a problem on the government's end. I have everything but the pell grant, and unfortunately I have no numbers to call on that. What worried me was that the lady I talked to today at financial aid said that the only problem she could think that would have delayed the funds being disbursed was a school licensing issue. Hopefully I'll see something soon! Thanks again!

Hello again!

Well, that does sound a little odd. Maybe the person who handles all of the financial aid just isn't organized? Our FA person is always on top of things, so I guess that's the difference. As for the school licensing, I'm not aware of any problems, but I checked the Board of Nursing website, and Hondros is still listed as having full accreditation. So, I wouldn't worry too much about that statement! I hope everything works out for you!

hi catrat
Yep, we are expericing the same thing at hondros columbus. Various students have inquired about the "missing" pell grant money and the replies are pretty much same ole same ole...as soon as the monies arrive, the accounting dept processes immediately...and if they had it they would post it...people have asked for answers from financial aid person but no reply which is strange because shes very good at her job. seems almost like a covert operation taking place. when asked to contact the processors on the govnt end, we are told the accounting dept and the processors are in daily contact...ok..ifs thats the case, why no answers? hondros is a great school otherwise and the monies have always been distributed in a timely manner.

Hello, I currently attend Hondros Cincy and am in my 4th term of the LPN program. Believe me you will have no trouble getting into the RN program. My class started with 63 in term 1 and now we only have about 30 originals. So dont fret. They are much better now than when I started. They are working out the kinks since they are a relatively new nursing school. It's a good school especially considering there is no wait to start. My sister in law also goes there and my husband is also trying to get in so I think its not too bad. It will get you where you need to be. Good luck!
