Paying for College
1

<p>Hi, im totally new to this site n after 5 years of working job to job I got fired n prego at the same time n took it as a sign to stick my head in the books.</p>

<p>I always found myself givin up on school due to lack of motivation n knowledge of what to do next.</p>

<p>I guess ill b on here a lot considerin I dont have much college guidance.</p>

<p>My questions/ comments would be,
if anyone has advise for a single mom atendin school shoot it…
Ive decided to go for nursing so n e info would b helpful
Im a little nervous about the assement test considerin I came frm a continuation school which they dont really teach the students jus help them gather credits… So can anyone recommend some material I should study?
N what im currently stuck on is they want the previous colleges month n year I attended n I dont remember exactly when… I did a semester 4 years ago, one maybe 3 years ago… I really dont remeber :[ but does it have to be accurate? Their askin about it on my app.</p>

<p>Thanks to n e one who replys</p>

<p>You can contact your previous colleges and have them send YOU copies of your transcripts. Then you will know the exact dates you attended. </p>

<p>Have you considered applying to a nursing school affiliated with one of your community colleges? Perhaps the community college could help you know what prerequisite courses you need to take, and so forth.</p>

<p>Also, this is the financial aid section of this forum…if you go to the main listing of forums…look down for “College Majors” and in there…you will find “nursing major”. You might get better answers to your questions there.</p>
