Bellevue College 2012 hopefuls

Yep, best to check on it and get the final word from Chie - I can't get to that information right now, but I think that's what I recall being said. Something about financial aid having to use a voucher for their books, and can only use it through the bookstore. Hopefully someone reading this can correct me if I'm mistaken!

last year anyway, we bought them online with instructions from Jocelyn(Lab instructor). The book store marks up the price significantly, so the Lab instructor did not want us to pay more if we did not have to. Unfortunately, Financial Aid students have to go through the book store to get materials covered. Dont buy from the book store is you don't have to.

I checked with Chie and she confirmed that nurse pack info would be available at the beginning of the quarter. :)

Thought I'd let you guys know:

I called and asked about when we'd be doing our badging/fingerprinting stuff, and it won't be going on until October!

I'm unable to get to my paperwork right now; is this book in addition to the list we received, or does it replace something on that list? Wow, I've already allocated a huge basket for all my books and supplies - crazy piles of stuff that we need!! :uhoh3:

JMTrout · Aug 8, 2012

Yes, the book is in addition to the book list we already have.

Chie just emailed out the ISBN Numbers:

ISBN-10: 1437701515

ISBN-13: 978-1437701517

This is for one book package. It's the text and the videos packaged together.

hereshoping · Aug 8, 2012

Actually, I believe this is just the book (correct me if I'm wrong!!!) Videos are separate on Amazon, though if you purchase as a package from the publisher's website, you can get a bit of a better price, plus they are offering free shipping. It's $144 for the package there.... (I prefer to order from Amazon when I can as I have Prime, so no shipping fees, plus much faster than most others...) :)

JMTrout · Aug 8, 2012

You're right the ISBN is just for the book. I'll ask if the videos are required or not.

Just wanted to double check, but we don't have to pay tuition until the first day of class, right? Or do we have to follow the regular guidelines for the school (which is by August 15th)?

hereshoping · Aug 14, 2012

I'm pretty sure we have to follow the regular BC guidelines. Unless you are on fin. aid/loans; then call the fin. aid office and request a defer; that will keep you registered until the funds come in. I'd call and make sure though....here's what the website says....

Fall quarter tuition and fees are due by August 15th. After August 15th, tuition and fees are due immediately. Be aware that your registration is not complete until payment is made and your classes may be dropped by the Registration Office.

(Grace period: 7 calendar days from the first day you register for classes OR by the first day of the quarter, whichever comes first. There is no grace period once the quarter has begun.)

JMTrout · Aug 14, 2012

Unless you have a deferral, you need to pay by August 15th. A deferral will show up on your class schedule like a class. Now since you need to have access codes to get the classes and your seat is held theoretically you could hold off till the day before class to register.
