I am currently in LPN school, and am doing very well straight A's woohoo!!!! I have a few questions about it, I'm in my second of 3 semesters, almost done yay! But we're just now finding out that we won't have a maternity rotation. Which is quite upsetting, I may not have wanted to do maternity but still was hoping to have a rotation in it. Also are we supposed to be learning phlebotomy because we haven't, or rather had a one-day lab for it, with no practice. I'm the class rep for my class too lol! I'm wondering if I should say anything about this to the school. Either the phlebotomy or the maternity rotation.
Oh and I have an upcoming surgery planned for when I'm school too, the day before my clinical, I explained it to my clinical instructor about how I would prefer not to have a patient, and maybe follow the wound team, which we are scheduled for, but it wouldn't be my week for it. I feel like she didn't take to the idea too well. I just feel like I can't wait to have the surgery though. I am officially rambling sorry for all the questions, I'm just looking for advice is all. Thanks in advance!!!!
On top of all the other stressors I have going on right now I am 2000.00 short for the rest of the year. I have federal loans in place but it will only cover so much of the tuition the remainder was 3000.00 I have managed to pay of a bit of it. I have been in contact with the financial aid office quite a bit, but they don't endorse any other loan programs. I had a talk with the director of the program to explain my situation, and she referred me to the president. I wrote an email to him that he supposedly never recieved. When I spoke with him the other day, he basically shut me down saying they have to take the appropriate actions, and that he would get back to me on it.
I had listed numerous ways in which I could make it up to the school, I'm so worried because I may have to drop out and owe 12,000 for a 2000.00 debt. I have no idea as to what else I can do...any advice would be appreciated. We have absolutly no way of making up the money either, I'm working my husband is working, we have no one to borrow from (I have searched for private loans) and we're going to food banks to live. Thank goodness we don't have children
