lonestar nursing 2014 hopeful

Published

Hi, just wanted to start a post about my process of applying at lonestar. Hope to hear from other applicants! I have just taken my HESI and will be applying for the spring semester with a score of 11.54

Jennjenn they said that not all clinical sites require insurance even though the paper said that. I'm still gonna buy it through the school either way bc I need insurance. But you have to pay up front for coverage which is why I'm waiting lol.

Hello Aleeceness, Would you please tell me what do I need to do to appeal for financial aid ???

I am in the same boat as you. I have financial aid for Spring only :nailbiting:

From my past experience you write an essay stating why you should get aid other than financial need. It's not complicated though I haven't done one for lonestar so it might be different.

I am going through the process right now. There is a form that you have to fill out, (professional judgement request) I have to appeal because I already have a degree, but I would think that it would be similar. There is an "Appeal for Financial Aid" form to fill out. I also had to write a letter stating why I am requesting financial aid. I had to visit with an advisor, and have them fill out an Academic Success Plan, and you also need a copy of your academic advisement report.

It is all pretty easy, just a little time consuming. The letter was the most difficult part for me, but still quite easy.

Good luck!

No I have no clue. I also saw that on my schedule in the box for clinicals that is says lscs insurance required. I was just wondering if anyone else had that on yours or is it on everyone's? If I should be getting that insurance like real fast or what?

It depends if is required by the hospital. Either way is better to have health insurance just in case. I need to get one myself.
