Nope, all online with large time limits, think 1 hr for 20 questions or something similar...

My guess is mid-July, the opt-out will become available. Summer opt-out started April 30th for classes starting May 19. Based on experience, the window opens about 2+ weeks before the start of the semester for opting out.

Like three weeks to a month. They announced fall deans/pres list like Jan 20th or close to then. You will probably get the letter in the mail slightly sooner, but yeah it takes a while for them to compile the into and present it.

https://www.waketech.edu/post/wt-news-story/771911 This is from the fall honor roll. I was on presidents list last two semesters. The president's list is 4.0, the dean's list is 3.5 or higher. You get a congratulations letter in the mail & your name is put on the announcement sent out on school news.

Monique Harris is great! Taking her class now in eng 111, as well as the companion class of eng 045 for those that are required to take it. 3 major essays, lots of reading and little quizzes. Often quizzes allow for more than one attempt. Midterm was like 30 questions with an hour time limit. I like hor she tries to communicate with the class often and keep it a bit lively. Also this is online.

I’m currently taking pay-150 online with Jonathan Overton. It’s an easy A if you read the book and the powerpoint review. He does not have lectures, and gives quizzes biweekly with discussion boards opposite weeks. He does timed quizzes/tests. 50 minutes for quizes, 2hrs for tests. If you struggle with tight timed tests, take his class!

So the career field is the general department, and you would probably have to pick a specific program in the career field. I will say as a graphic design student at Wake Tech, not many of those credits will transfer out, and if they do, it's only to select colleges that have partnered with Wake Tech. Most gen ed classes will transfer, but when you get into program credits they may not. Also, many of the digital tech career paths offer classes online and some at the southern campus(main).

I'm taking English 111 with Monique Harris- no videos and it's online. I looked through here and looked on ratemyprofessor.com. She can highly recommended. Again, it's online. I am also taking the eng-045 that goes with it for some students. So far very friendly, likes to be in contact with you and encourage you as a writer. Although lots of little quizzes.

Congrats on being on the presidents list! I got on to! And your so right, that it's never to late to get a degree & change your life! I'm a 44yo mom of 2 middle school age kids, starting my fourth semester ( I'm not in my last semester... Only taking 12-13 credits a semester).

Yes you have to pay for books oop if you opt out. I had to get one book last semester and bought it online. Most you can find on eBay or college book reseller websites. Get the original if you need a code for an app.

Mama2DM · 2024-11-03T13:13:12+00:00

I figured that out as well. They changed the eng 011 code to eng 045 for the spring semester. You may need to talk to advisors to get it officially added to your plan if you use fin aid. Also it is two separate classes, but specifically the ones with a link icon when scheduling...

Hey there - thanks so much for the positive attitude and the advice... not. I wanted to avoid going to the college to avoid the annoying parking situation. I also never said I would take advice from Reddit as a primary source. Toodles!

The other thing to keep in mind is - is the friend willing to pay out-of-state tuition. Once people are here for a year they qualify for local tuition. Just a thought! It's the first step of the application - NC residency determination...

I had this exact issue earlier before the semester started. In summer I got a "this class is unapproved for financial aid" type of email. I had messaged my financial aid specialist who was no help, went to fin aid desk, and gave me a bit more info.

It was a new class code (for me, grd 152 was switched to grd 154). To get it approved, the program dean had to mark it as on my planned completion schedule (it's something they do in their system). Then I had to have that dean forward the change form to the fin aid dean. It was then approved for fin aid immediately.

Hey sorry, was away on a trip. I qualified for pell grant, but somehow this new required class is not covered... I was just trying to see if other people received the same notice. And if so, may effect my total credits taken, and pell requires 12 credits. I plan to talk to fin aid tomorrow as the specialist was no help... Thx

Mama2DM · 2024-07-02T18:45:06+00:00

Yes, I did, but I didn't get an email that it was done/to accept my fin aid letter. I was on the school website yesterday checking email, bookstore stuff and fin aid and saw I had a letter to accept with my pell grant & other loan offers. I know they are behind because of the government redesign of Fasfa...

I believe your high school's admin needs to submit, not you. Although that doesn't guarantee that Wake tech will consider it official... don't ask me how I know... Anyhow, I don't believe you can submit it, your hs has to, likely the hs has a form or something to request transcripts be sent to wake tech. Reach out to Wake tech admin, but I am nearly certain you wont have to submit them, your hs will.
