I am new here and have found the forum to be very informational. I decided to start a thread for Resurrection's fall 2012 applicants. I think it would be good to keep in touch throughout the process, so if you have any questions or comments feel free to express them here. I already submitted my application, transcripts and essay, all I need is to take the TEA's test. I'm taking it in February and am really nervous because I haven't even started studying. Has anyone taken it yet? How was it?
I am also applying to 2 other programs:
Loyola's ABSN program
Truman's Associates in Nursing program
I am debating on applying to UIC's GEP program, DePaul's MENP program and Rush's GEM program.
If anyone else is applying to these, please let me know! Thanks & good luck to all.
I'm now trying to contact Shirley about book vouchers and when thru are available!!! Semester starts soon and I don't have anything but my uniforms .. I'm getting nervous now but at least my tuition is covered mostly by loans tho, school is way to expensive and not enough funding!!
Hi guys, I have a question regarding about the award letter. I want to accept one loan and the resu need award, so I only click those two. I really don't get how to "accept" them, since when I went out of the page it looks like I didn't accept anything. Hope that makes sense..
You click each award you want at the right next to it. Then at the bottom of the page there is a button that says "accept all awards" which will accept anything you've checked.
You can view your award letter under your student portal under financial aid. The award letter should have the loans, scholarships, grants and the amounts that you accepted or that are pending.
Storhar whew! Sheesh! I still need to go online and do my payment plan. Gonna do it tomorrow. I can't believe this is about to happen. I ran into the nurse who took care of my dad a few years ago when he had an accident and she said to brace myself and now I'm more worried!
Since I just accepted my awards a couple days ago and they haven't come through yet, should I do a payment plan too? I think the awards will be enough to cover tuition, but my balance is still at the full amount for the semester...
Do we have to set up a payment plan till our awards come through??? Praytotheunicorn I have ran into nurses that have gone thru the program and they said its the hardest 16 months of your life!!!! I am worried also but I know we all can do this!!!!
I think Im going to call the bursars office first thing monday morning. The deadline for a payment plan is ON or before August 20th. We'll see what they say. I was going to do the payment plan today, but it says there is a $50 no-refundable fee. That's $50 I cant afford to just spend if I dont need to. What do you ladies think?
Also, I dont think it has sink in yet that Im starting nursing school in a week. I know it will be hard, but I wanted for this moment for like forever...
Make sure you go all the way into your financial stuff. It says mine is the full amount too but in small print it says the real amount with financial aid applied.
