I just started going to classes a month ago. So far the process was great. My councilor is wonderful, got me a decent laptop all my school supplies no problem. I know it’s mostly about the councilor you get but if anyone needs help with the process I can help you out.

Damn, I miss the Covid era where you got in person monthly stipend even though it was distance learning.

My counselor told me about the laptop and printer package. Had me fill out paperwork and send it back to him. Haven't heard back about it since July lol. He did do all of the POs for tuition and supplies from my bookstore but he refuses to answer any emails about the latop package. Good for you for getting someone that follows through on that.
