After passing the LPN entrance exam on March 14, 2014, I was told by Ms Torres that I can choose between full time and part time. On April 11, 2014 I was interviewed and choose to be a full time student. I began to worry because I didn't hear anything back after that. The instructions read "financial aid application must be done by August 15, 2014, after call Ms Torres to schedule a financial aid appointment. I called Monday thru Friday at least 4 times a day for 3 weeks. I left messages and even went up to the school. On August 26, 2014, I finally received an acceptance letter via mail and email. I went to Boces at 8:30am on September 4, 2014 to start class as a full time LPN student. Upon arriving I was informed that I am no longer a full time student, I am now part time WITHOUT my knowledge. As I questioned Ms Torres as to why I was not informed about the change BEFORE paying $800 to reserve my seat in the full time program, Ms Torres blamed me for not contacting her. To top it off not only am I no longer a full time student and I will only be refunded $150. Overall I would say proceed with caution.
