So, I was supposed to be starting school on May 20, taking a biology class. Today I got a call from the school saying I will have to pay over $900 before I could start the class. Although I have a $2k HOPE Scholarship, the school says it will only pay $700 because of the amount of hours I'm taking and I have to pay the remainder.
The problem is, I will have to add one more class before I'm eligible to take out a loan to pay for this class. That's where my issues come in. For God's sake, I'm taking biology in a 4 week session & scared to add another class because I don't want to mess up my grades, but then again If I don't it will put me back a whole semester before I will be able to apply to nursing school. I'm supposed to apply in Feb 2014, but if I wait I will have to apply Aug. 2014 & wont be able to start until 2015.
What do you guys suggest? I'm sure I can make an A by adding another class (anything is possible), but it seems like it will be soo hard & I don't want to overwork myself.
Another thing, I only have 2 classes on schedule so far (a PE & Biology w/ Lab) & those classes alone are about $1600. Does that sound too expensive? Do you guys think I should do it? Help .. I need some insight. Classes start next week so any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
