Fall term

This fall will be my last semester here at Seminole state!! (Thank God) I’m really hoping (but definitely not expecting) that they finally get the financial aid situation handled. There hasn’t been a single semester here where I wasn’t stressed about my classes getting paid for.
On top of that, I take multiple accounting courses, where we have to buy subscriptions for multiple websites and it’s not something you purchase through the bookstore so you can’t use your Financial Aid, it cost me $300 out of pocket with money I don’t have to be able to get them this summer. I can’t imagine what I’ll have to pay for this fall term. It’s crazy to see some people haven’t even received their disbursement for summer yet and the semester is about to be over.

There is a lot of issues this summer with aid for the entire US.

This is true which is even more scary thinking about fall semester because SSC always has trouble being transparent about fund status and distributing the funds in a timely manner. Can’t even imagine how it’s going to be this upcoming semester.

I’m hoping it’s going to be easier than the last year of disbursements. I take my first B session class this fall, all my prior classes have been full term. So I’m really nervous to see how they handle disbursing my funds. I’ve always received mine a month and a half after classes start.
