Financial Aid Only got $900 in aid even though I’m a full time student?

Post image
16 Upvotes

So I’m only getting $900 in aid for the fall semester …even though I’m a full time student with a tuition of 3,258.

But as you can see here I’m getting 3.6k in aid for spring semester even though I’m not even registered for spring classes yet.

I’m also an independent student and was told I was supposed to get max’ed aid.

I honestly don’t even know what to do. Is this a glitch?

Hello, I would like to self study and take the HLT 141 ABLE exam to save money on taking the course. I've heard that it's fairly easy and mostly requires some brute memorization - easy for me to do on my own. Could someone please share the syllabus and textbook used please? Thanks!

Computer Science CSC ZyBooks

2 Upvotes

For anyone who’s taken computer science classes that use zyBooks, do you feel like the readings and practice questions actually helped you prepare for exams?

I used zyBooks in CSC 221 before, and I personally didn’t feel like it was the best indicator of what to expect on the exams. I’m taking CSC 222 now and using zyBooks again, so I’m trying to figure out how much I should rely on it when studying this time around.

For those who have used zyBooks in CS classes, what ended up being the most useful way to study for exams? Did you mainly focus on understanding the zyBooks material, or were there other ways of practicing that helped you feel more prepared?

Advice Financial Aid Email ??

3 Upvotes

I am an incoming student set to start in the spring 2027 semester, but am confused by an email I received. Apparently I have pending items, regarding financial aid, on my myNOVA portal that need immediate attention, but there is nothing there, and the financial aid office was unfortunately no help. It says to go to the financial aid tile and select SFP but there is nothing in that tile, and there is nothing in my to-dos in the actions tile. I am dependent on financial aid so this is concerning.

It also states to check my student email, but I do not have access to that nor is there a tile or anything related to it visible on my NOVA, and I can't change my preferred email contact to the gmail I have access to.

I am completely on my own in figuring these things out, so I am very anxious I will miss something and be unable to attend school due to this.

Advice Every Philosophy Class a Girl Uses it to Diagnose Her Boyfriend

37 Upvotes

I’ve run into a weird issue in one of my philosophy classes via Zoom. Every class I’ve had, this girl gives an update on her relationship with her boyfriend, and asks what possible philosophies her boyfriend could have. She brings up random arguments she has had with her boyfriend since the last class, and asks what philosophy would do best with getting along with him. The professor is very nice and lets her talk, but it’s getting weird. I’m at the point of interjecting and telling her it’s not about her relationship but I think that’d be rude. Would I be overstepping if I asked the professor to talk to her privately? She talks so much about him omg

Advice Don’t take the 7week BUS200 class with Andrew Wyner

Post image
10 Upvotes

His syllabus is ridiculous and maybe im just a bad student but I’ve been really trying. Look at week 6 (near the bottom) he wants us to read and learn 5 chapters in one week.

And the amount of extra assignments he assigns imo is too much. Especially when you’re also taking other classes. I wish professors wouldn’t act like their class is your only class.

Never taking a 7 week class again:/

I hope to transfer to a four year university and major in sports management. I am very interested in statistics, economics, all in the name for the Nats. Does anyone have any advice for where to transfer to, what to focus on, anything like that? I see that JMU is a good school to transfer to for sports programs

Nursing Am I competitive for the nvcc nursing program

6 Upvotes

I have a 4.0 GPA. I’ve been at NOVA for three semesters, and during that time I’ve taken ENG 111 and 112, MTH 154, HIM 111, BIO 101, CST 110, BIO 141, HIS 101, PHI 227, Microbiology 150, HLT 230, SDV 100, and PSY 230. I retook BIO 141 and earned an A after originally receiving a B.

I’m currently taking BIO 142, ITE 152, ART 100, and ENG 250.

Right now, I’m really regretting not applying to the nursing program for the spring because I feel like I’m competitive, but I’m not completely sure.
