Hello all! Just thought I'd start a thread for all of those folks that have submitted, or are getting ready to submit, their applications for FCCJ's Fall '08 term.
I will be submitting my application in a few weeks, when this Spring term ends. I have taken my NAT (twice), so I'm good to go there, but still need to get my CPR class done. I called several places & I'm waiting to hear back from them.
I look forward to chatting with & getting to know all of you, who will be doing the count-down with me... on getting our acceptance letters!!!
I know it helps to sound-board off each other & to lean on each other for support... especially with getting all the things done that we have to do!
It's funny. We all are going to the same places, handling the same things...but, dancing around each other. There's no telling how many of us have been in the same places at the same time.
...don't blame me. I don't get out much...This type of stuff excites me.....why don't you try spending all day with a house with 2 toddlers, a preschooler, and a 9yo who thinks she's 30...and then u fault me for my corny-ness darnit!!
I'll be at the fingerprint place @ 11:15 on Wed. Hope to see some of you there. If anyone wants to carpool, I live in OP, email me at [email protected].
I just got an email for the SKILLS kit people you do not have to call or email ahead of time they are making them for everyone and there should be some ready for pick up next week. Just call to make sure they have them before driving over there.
You guys are so awesome! I'm sure the madness will begin tomorrow or Wednesday.
I totally had to let you guys know.... the Dean of the Nursing Department called me to congratulate me on my acceptance into the program!! I was really afraid that they would be mad, but she said that she was glad someone called her (my Dean). She's gonna get my papers to me tomorrow at my work!
I'm so happy, I'm delerious!!!
Right on!!! Sometimes you've got to take the bull by the horns. Congrats!!!
okay for the people who did or are doing worksource and if you have already went to your appt, how did it go? (my appt is on thurs right after my dna fringerprinting.) i was a little nervous when i talked to the guy john bolin over the phone to even set up the appt. the way he asked the questions (about job, gpa, ssc, etc) made me feel like saying nevermind!! he was a little mean to be honest. he asked if i had a pell grant and i said no. he was like what are you going to do if you don't get the scholarship? i said that i was unsure and was still waiting word from financial aid. then he was like well how do you know if you don't have a pell grant? i told him because it tells you right away (online) but it also says "you may qualify for other grants and loans, your application is being processed." which it always says even when i go in person, they always say "i am sorry ms. harris but you only qualify for loans."
so needless to say i probably wont get any help from worksource. i am still going to the appt on thursday but gesh, that man has me scared to even talk to him. will it be actually be him or do they have more people doing the interviews?
Don't be nervous, just show him that you need the money. Make sure you have all your papers, you'll be just fine.
I have an appointment with the health department tomorrow to determine if I can get a reduced cost papsmear and then to get the papsmear. I am gonna have to cancel, because I just don't have the money. I didn't know if it would be possible or cheaper to get this stuff from them. Does anyone know that?
I just wasted my day at my doctor's appt. they can do my titers...my insurance will cover it...but it will take 2-3 weeks to get the lab results!!!
Are they serious?
So, I guess I will have to go to Northside Med Clinic...I'm kinda mad though. The girl wrote on my paper. I told her to keep her little ink marks off my paper. She said the doctor will confirm everything when he/she signs it. I hate "know-it-alls"!
he was a little mean to be honest. he asked if i had a pell grant and i said no. he was like what are you going to do if you don't get the scholarship? i said that i was unsure and was still waiting word from financial aid. then he was like well how do you know if you don't have a pell grant? i told him because it tells you right away (online) but it also says "you may qualify for other grants and loans, your application is being processed." which it always says even when i go in person, they always say "i am sorry ms. harris but you only qualify for loans."
