It’s orientation but basically when it starts. I believe it officially starts that same Thursday. So many people can’t afford the school that’s why the give it up their spots hahaha ! Good luck to us all with this crazy tuition.

Hello Everyone,

I wanted to see if anyone has looked into or finished their financial aid process to pay for upcoming semester tuition fees. I've personally came into a problem where I made too much in 2017 to qualify for a large loan from subsidized/ unsubsidized direct loans (federal loans); I was offered only 6,000 in federal loans for a full year. Unfortunately, I now have to look into getting alternative loans to cover the cost of schooling. That being said, have any of you picked or used a alternative loan agency that was awesome and recommend using for school financing.

hey, I'm kind of on the same boat in a way. I've been trying to reach Ricardo from financial aid for weeks and he hasn't been responding and its really frustrating me. I don't quality for anything either so I'm gonna pay for the tuition by taking out a loan from Discover. I've researched a lot and it seems to be the best option. It's a huge, scary amount but we'll be able to pay it off soon after we graduate.

Hey guys the alternative loans are through private lenders I herd that discover had the best loans personally I ended up using one through sallie Mae and wellsfargo my interest rates ranged between 11-12% but I think that’s based off your credit score sallie Mae was easiest to get and I think it was for like 67,000 and got approved in like two days without having to give them anything. But you know what guys just don’t pay any attention to the loans just appily and leave that for when we’re done with the program !!!! Now is not the time to be overwhelmed stressed this is the least of our worries we’re going to get through this and it’s all going to be worth it !!
