It will also not hurt to ask them if you qualify for covid grants for current students. I know it mentioned on their website; this might be for the students who were on campus. Ask anyway, at least this is only opened to current students. This is the lucky break for you all, hopefully, and finally. ?

You're welcome! You are also correct as we are only eligible for loans or scholarships at the Masters's level and on. No free grants for us except for the undergraduate students, even not second-degree students as well.

I am sorry about this mess and I don't see why you can't apply. I pray that you are able to receive all the help you need as well.

I believe that students beginning in the fall semester are able to use financial aid for the certificate program.

You may want to recheck with your advisor as I believe that has been updated, and for current students during the fall semester, you can complete all 250 hours via telepsych. I know someone who will be going this route during the fall semester, though that will be her final semester.

Also they having been completing the official transcript evaluations as well.

FNP Dreams, Are you aware you can also use telepsych for your clinical hours?

I can understand why you upset and would be also if I was in your shoes. I don't understand why it can't be extended to current students. You will, however, get through this challenge with God's help.

Just an update - the zoom meeting was interactive. They allowed students to ask questions about the program and also talked about the next step in the process- getting registered. Orientation will be via zoom approximately two weeks to the beginning of class.

Thanks! I will keep you posted on how it goes.

You're welcome! Know that I am also waiting for the official plan of study. I can, however, confirm that depending on your transfer classes, you would probably be only taking six courses- 16 credits like myself. 2 classes - 4 credit in the fall, six credits in Spring and Summer including 500 clinical hours for 2nd and 3rd semester. They have also begun zoom meetings starting tomorrow. I have mine tomorrow. There will be more dates added per my advisor.

Just to update. It is correct we will go through the Summer and complete the program on 8/8/21. We will still have a 2-month break between the end of 1st semester and the beginning of next semester as well as a month break between the end of the 2nd semester and the beginning of the final semester. They have also mentioned preceptorship starting in the Fall semester of 2020.

Thanks!

Hi, FNP Dreams, Thanks! How was the first semester? I hear we have three exams for psychopharm? What about the other class? Three papers and weekly discussions? I response? Also, $15 per each test? Thanks!
