Published

Hi all :)

I decided to start a new thread since the last one has something like 275 comments. It's a tad overwhelming!

Any questions, concerns, comments, etc regarding Pasco-Hernando Community College's programs? This is your thread:nurse:

We have decided on a meeting time and place. Here are the details:

When: Saturday evening, July 17, 7pm til whenever.

Where: Brass Tap in Wiregrass

Why: Faces to usernames :) lol--Seriously, won't it be great to meet the people who have been stressing out with us for the past several months?

If you have questions about the plan, feel free to pm me :) Also, if anyone has any brilliant ideas on how to recognize one another, feel free to share!

RN-to-be...

Ummm...wow! Thanks! Where should I start?! Bookstore?

"Getting our money put into our cards too." ---> ???

Yup the bookstore and then fax it over to your caseworker. The guy in the back, forgot his name but he did it all for me. (Edited to add his name is John)

The library card is where the money goes and they swipe it. The award amount will show up in WISE under finanical aid and it should all be tax exempt, so ask your caseworker for the tax id # if she doesn't have it I can get it off Becky.

Did anyone apply for a Direct Loan and if so have you heard anything in regards to approval?

Got it - thanks Yaz! My tax exempt ID may be different, so I emailed my caseworker.

I did, but haven't heard anything or seen anything in WISE yet.

FWIW - I did see Nursing Fundamentals up on Angel, though we can't access it until the first day!

Went and got books, the one set of uniforms they had in my size and patches today..the girl gave me the wrong patches, i think. I asked for LPN but these say associate in nursing? that's for the RN program, right? psh.

Hey, I have a pair of Nurse Mates shoes size 8.5 if someone needs them. I need shoes with good arches cause my arches collapsed and WIA says they wont pay for them so I got these to sell to get the money for the other shoes.

I also have a blue stethoscope for sale.I already have one.

If anyone is interested reply on here.

Thanks

Yaz,

Did you have to go to the financial aid office to have the book/supplies money applied to your student ID card??

Thanks,

Melissa

No, I had to go back and forth to the business office all day yesterday. It was really annoying but they finally got the money in the card by 2 pm.

Yaz,

Thank you soo much for replying. The bookstore keeps telling me to go to financial aid but I would go crazy on somebody if I waited there for 3 hours and I was in the wrong place!!! Which building is the business office in?

Thanks again!

It's either building D or E, but you can't miss it and there is a sign that says Business Office and then you just sign in and check off Career Central and then someone will help you.

So...go to the bookstore for "expenses" worksheet. Fax to WIA/Career central people. Go to Business office. Business office gets okay from WIA/Career Central for funds/to release funds. Funds go on card. Back to bookstore to purchase.

Something like that? I'm thinking this is 2 trips for me. At least. Thanks Yaz!!

Wow, what a pain! But thanks to Yaz for telling me about the business office. Terry was great. The bookstore kept insisting I was supposed to go to financial aid but she was able to get it straightened out. Career Central only approved the books in the box but not the rest, so it will end up being 3 trips for me by the time she approves the additional amount.

So who has started reading the books and what are you focusing on?

Ok so is it safe to say that if I'm getting calls re paperwork for career central from RMC BayonetPoint that I have a sponsorship? I haven't offically heard the words sponsorship fall out of anyone's mouth.
