How long did it take for your background checks to be in on CB?

I was a little surprised to see the total fees were a little more than I expected but hopefully I get at least some financial aid to help cover it. I have to go in to the financial aid office in person on Friday to hand on some documents.

I did the four payment plan, so it's like $408 a month due Nov, Dec, Jan, and Feb 20th.

I signed up for pharm in the morning, only because on test days I’d rather get it over with in the morning instead of worrying about it all day during the morning until the afternoon

I complete forgot about the LRM orientation since I lost the paper for it do you guy think it is ok if I completed it today. For the Attestation page I just put my name and title:volunteer and signed it with todays date but it said complete date should be the same as first day. Can someone please help me. Thank you.

Niragi94, I'm not sure how to assist. It it were me, I'd just finish the requirements today. I'm sure if it's an issue they'll let you know.

Everything on my CastleBranch is completed!! Now to work on uniforms, patches, shoes, stethoscope, books, and paying for classes!! Ahhhh....

Hello, any updates for the Alternatives?

Hello,

I plan on applying for the fall 2020 term and was wondering if financial aid covered the entire program for you all?

FYI, alternates, Dr. H said you won’t get a call until after this term is done and grades are posted so in late December ish

I know several students that are on the fence of passing this semester. Basically, their grade on their final is going to determine if they have to retake the semester or not. So, unfortunately, it'll be the last week of fall classes before some alternates get calls for spots.

Does anyone have the uniform requirements they can upload a picture of for me?? I left my folder at work and I'm off today. I wanted to go get my scrubs and shoes.

Hello everyone,

Hope everyone is doing well. Has anyone had any issues with financial aid processing your awards? This is my first time at polk state and I've had my fafsa in since August but my award package still hasn't been awarded. I've called multiple times to make sure everything was okay on my end and they say everything is good and that they will expedite the processing to get my financial aid package awarded in time before the drop date. Does it usually take this long? Any insight would help. Thanks!
