Waiting to start RN program...now what??

Published

I have completed all my classes and turned in my application for the RN program, so now what can I take while I'm waiting??? I have my daughter in the childcare program so taking the semester off is really not an option. Can anyone recomend a couple of classes that would be helpful to the RN program???? Thanks.

LOL!! Thanks.:D Do you by any chance know what to do with financial aid if I take the semester off? Do I just apply for financial aid in the spring? It would be nice to have a semester break, but I'm worried about losing my FA. I will let you know when I get accepted for sure!!! Thanks.

I started in Jan, so i also had a semester off. I took my daughter to the daycare for 2 half days to keep from losing my spot and I spent that time volunteering in my son's class. I knew that once school started I would no longer have the time for that, so I really enjoyed it. I don't know how financial aid works, it would probably be best to call them directly to get your answers.

When does your RN program start? If you're going to be out of school longer than 6 months, I'd talk to your financial aid department because if you're enrollment status is reported as less than half time for over 6 months, I think, any loans you have may go into repayment.
