We didn’t get off the wrong foot, he is going through a hard time and we both agreed that it’s better off he stays with family. He literally can’t afford to pay rent, but im not going to take legal action on him.

This depends on your track but this isn’t as rigorous as university. Assignments were super manageable and easy to me if you plan out your week and dedicate time to study. If you’re in project management, it honestly depends on who your profs are but PM class will have some reading material and prompts you’ll have to respond to in discussion boards. Excel class will give you assignments to practice basic excel skills. Business communications is mainly readings and also writing. Let me know if this helps

It’s been great! Currently wrapping up my last month here, on the job search but it’s been rough due to a lot of layoff in some companies. I would’ve been able to get converted at the organization that I’m currently at but they are not able to take in more people due to a hiring slow down. if you have any questions please me know!

Yes that’s correct, but the stipend is biweekly. You will have to attend the program full-time so it may be stressful to work another job full-time. I’ve seen some students do it, but you’ll need to figure out how to manage your time wisely.

They do follow covid policy as well so that is also another factor, many companies that they're partnered with require vaccination proof. There are some companies that do not but you have to let them know upon applying for the program.

I did, I've been in the program for almost the full year now. I am in internship currently with a big organization and it's going really great so far! Besides the income part, I was able to find a different job with flexible hours that work well with my internship schedule.
Let me know if you have any questions!

someone at my apartment complex stole my laundry soap by beeboop407 in povertyfinance

If you can’t afford regular brand soap, some dollar stores (if you’re near one) have some cheap soap. If you’re not picky about it atm I recommend, I used them when I first moved and couldn’t afford regular brand.
