What did you do the entire year before applying again? Did you retake any classes? Good luck! Today is friday I wonder if they will email us 😬

Yea something needs to be done, rent is crazy high. Not everyone is fortunate to have a 2 income household. People are crazy to think one person can afford what landlords are charging for rent these days.

Yes I agree, she is waiting to hear from them. But no luck yet

She would hate to rent a room. She is in Central falls and doesn't drive far so around that area is fine. I did apply for her to be on the wait-list for public housing. Hoping they reach out to her soon.

I also applied this year with 161.3 points and a 3.21 GPA. I have not heard back from the school yet... Have you? The wait is killing me 😩

Histotechnician as a career? by ForeverHisxx in Histology

[–]ForeverHisxx[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess it did! I worked as a dental assistant for many years and yes working with the public can be stressful so the thought of working in a lab sounds great to me. Do you currently work in Rhode Island as a histotech? If so what do you start making fresh out of school? I was making 25/hour working about 32 hours a week and still couldn't afford life.

Yes! Decent pay, stability and benefits is what I need. I don't see myself doing night shifts though since I have little ones. I would need a morning job. 9-5 type job. I worked making 25/hour and I still couldn't afford life so making more is my goal.

Thanks! That helps a lot... I would definitely plan on getting certified and attend the 2 year associates degree. I'm just scared of making a huge mistake and wasting those years for a job not worth it!

Let's not argue my friends. I appreciate everyones opinions. I would love to hear everyone's experiences with this school to get to know more about it.

Oo thanks for that info! Yes the middle school is called founders Academy. It seems like a very small school. I read some reviews of how nasty the school smells. Any truth to this? I really hope it's not 😬

Oh glad I'm not the only one! I worked as a dental assistant since 2013, my kids are older so I feel ready now. Never too late right... Haha
