College

Brian is making more and more progress everyday, I'm very pleased to announce he is now a registered college student with CSN. Brian, Alexie and I went down to the college this afternoon and spoke with the registrar and got him all signed up. We then spoke with the academic counselor and added his classes. This semester he is taking, Criminal Justice 101 & 102, Music Appreciation and Mathematics 101. Only 3 days a week. He still needs to take his placement exams which we will be studying for through the week. I already printed out practically a book on general math with practice questions. Tomorrow we are hitting up the library to grab some books for him to cram with on algebra. That algebra is a mystery to him and I both.

We also were able to speak with the financial aid lady today, she gave us information on the different options we have. At this point we have filled out a FAFSA application and he was approved for a full payment. He is also eligible for a Pell Grant up too $5,500. The lady told us he will have to check back in 4 weeks when his full financial report will be done to apply for the grant or any other type of loan.

I really am just so proud of my husband, he has been working hard to achieve a goal and that is new for him. He has never been a self starter and has never known what he wants to do. But that has totally changed and he is putting in the work to achieve a goal. GO BRIAN!!!! You can do it!!!
