    KnightGal replied to kalisefer's topic in Texas Nursing

    gmarks, I regret that you, too, seem to be a victim of LSC's suddenly insane financial aid department. Remember how, at orientation, the first financial aid lady told us we could come by any time to...

    Ugh. I'm sorry you're going through the same thing! What I don't understand is, I have filled out the FAFSA three times now, and to my knowledge, I haven't changed a thing (except for income...

    Candie, MCHD definitely offers low cost vaccinations. That's where I've gone for all of mine. They are $10 each, unless you get more than one done at the same appointment. If that's the case, you...

    And would you believe that after I ran down to Montgomery with my tattered B.A. because they told me they wanted to see it...no one wanted to see it? All they would tell me is that they are tied up...

    You know, I can understand why people take up a life of crime. You do everything the right way, and they make your life as difficult as possible for

    KnightGal replied to kalisefer's topic in Texas Nursing

    Well, I just checked my Lone Star email and got some great news from LSC-Montgomery. All of a sudden, after 2 years, they're telling me that I don't qualify for anything but unsubsidized loans, since...

    Ugh. I'm sorry, Stephalump. That sucks. It seems as though there is always something lurking out there to get us! I had to get fingerprinted twice because I've practically washed mine away the...

    Stephalump, you are right: that is sick! And apologies if you mentioned this somewhere and I missed it, but can't you qualify for a government loan through FAFSA? Or are they telling you that you...

    gmarks, I was in the front row in a turquoise shirt, probably fumbling with all the papers they gave us! Where were you? Stephalump, I wrote to Ms. Scott and (initially) told her I thought I'd be a...

    KnightGal replied to kalisefer's topic in Texas Nursing

    Well, I got a message back from Ms. Scott. She said she was a bit worried about some of my comments and wanted to make sure I fully understood what nursing school is like. I told her I did, and...

    KnightGal replied to kalisefer's topic in Texas Nursing

    Wow, Stephalump. That is so incredibly thoughtful of you. Thank you so much. It sounds like you have a lot on your plate, too, so I'll understand if you can't do it. Definitely gonna stalk the...

    That's a good idea, Stephalump. I will make sure I check after the payment due date. Thanks for reminding me!!

    I am so upset. I made sure I was logged on at 8 to get the courses I wanted. I have had St. Luke’s in my Lone Star shopping cart for weeks now, because I wanted to be as close to home as possible...

    Stephalump, I know what you mean about bothering people! Still, what can they expect? We've been working towards this goal for some time, so are anxious to know what's going to happen! I've been...

    Stephalump, I hope you're right! gmarks, I put classes in my cart when registration opened, but it wouldn't let me finish enrolling. Katie at MC told me we couldn't until we attended orientation. If...

    I hope I can get morning classes as I need to be home to take care of my Mom in the afternoon/evening. And has anyone noticed that at Montgomery our clinicals will now be from 6:30-2:00 twice a...

    Forget what I said about Mont. County and a $45 fee for CPR. I just brought up the actual form after talking to someone there, and they, too, want $65. Think I will wait for orientation to see if...

    KnightGal replied to kalisefer's topic in Texas Nursing

    Just heard back from the woman at The Woodlands Emergency Training place, and the CPR class for healthcare providers there is $65 if you pay by credit card and $60 if you pay in cash. I looked at the...

    KnightGal replied to kalisefer's topic in Texas Nursing

    I only applied to Montgomery because I take care of my Mom and it is very close to home. Otherwise, NH has many more openings and the more likelihood of a positive outcome for applicants!

    KnightGal replied to kalisefer's topic in Texas Nursing

    Looking over all the posts, it looks as if NH and CF are really dragging their collective feet, so for all you who have applied to either, stay positive! Also, I have a friend at TB who went the LVN...

    Congratulations, kalisefer! Thanks for the heads up, gmarks! Stephalump: I spoke to Katie. I think I will go ahead and do it, because I don't have any insurance at the moment, so going to my doctor...
