Help! Any current bridge students?

Published

Hello. I am located in Virginia. I just graduated with my LPN from a local community college. I did super in the class & was enrolled this fall to bridge to my RN. The week of graduation, however, I gave birth to our 6th & final child. The 1st week of nursing I was diagnosed with Cardiomyopathy postpartum & had to take a sabatical & sit for a bit to see how I was going to progress. My LVEF at the time was 30% & it is now back to normal praise God. Dropping my fall semester hurt me financially in a HUGE way because my husband is also disabled & the only way we make it from one semester to the next is with my pell grant, scholarships & Stafford loan.

I am now able to enroll in college but the semester is closed to enrollment. I am wanting to start asap into a semester through an online college but I desperately need to be able to use Pell grant, Stafford & I can even carry my scholarships with me praise God. I do not want to pay $384.00 per credit hour or else I'll eat up all of my funds the 1st semester. I also don't have a ton of money to buy a ton of supplies out of pocket if I don't have to.

I would covet & appreciate any suggestions you might have as to what colleges I can get into right now for the most affordable prices. I would like to be able to start as soon as next week.
