Congrats! Look us up on Face book!

The Difference is probably more than 10K because USF includes food, plus remember that is only for one year. If you are entering as a junior it would be more than 20K...think about how long you would have to work to make up the difference or that Miami = USF + a newer car.

USF w/living expenses for instate is 15,300 http://usfweb2.usf.edu/finaid/10-11/1011_budget.htm Miami w/o living expenses 49,726 http://www.miami.edu/index.php/office_of_financial_assistance/ug/ug_coa/ug_coa_10_11/

Hi Cay!

The FB group name is : PHCC LPN Fall 2010 WC this might work too: http://www.facebook.com/?ref=logo#!/group.php?gid=144122152270490

If there are any fall LPN students reading this discussion, there is now a facebook goup for us. Search PHCC LPN and you should find it :)

I will mention this again, I used borders coupons and bought most of my books. My fundamentals book was $92 because I used a 33% off Coupon and free shipping. I also used Amazon for anything not available on Borders.

Sorry I am on vacation and have not been checking the board. I added a group on Facebook, search PHCC LPN Fall 2010 WC. It is open so you can add yourself, at some point later we can decide if we need to make the group private, and of course NC students are also welcome. I just thought if they want there own FB group the title made it easier.

Shep626, Thank you for all of the info, a little insight into what to come really helps! For everyone else, Borders has a 40% off coupon this week! I purchased the majority of my books through them using coupons...amazing savings! Everyone in my house now has a Borders Rewards Card;)

Shep626: I would like to ask if you have any tips for surviving the program, hardest part, easiest part? Any advice you have to offer? Thanks, Kelly

I know that there are several other PHCC threads but I thought it might be nice to have our own. So here it goes: My name is Kelly and I will be attending the WC evening/weekend program. I will probably be the eldest of our class, although I hope not, I have been married to my husband for 17yrs and we have one daughter who is soon to be 14. My husband in in the Air Force and we have lived around the world for the past 16yrs, now it is finally my chance to work on my education. I am very excited to be an LPN student but I also realize the next year will be very tough. Anybody interested in our own Facebook page?

I PM'd you.

I am thinking about putting my email address on it that way if I misplace it someone can contact me.

I too have purchased most of my supplies, almost all of them with some sort of discount. For my books, I have comparison shopped and used many borders coupons!

I wouldn't worry too much. It took about 5 days for me to get mine. You can also check wise to see if they changed your major.
