Title: Tulsa Community College........... financial aide line... 2 hour wait...Really?
Post by: XEALS for THRILLS on August 11, 2011, 12:08:29 pm
I have been one of the many naive Tulsan's that think that they can accomplish something with Tulsa Community College when it comes to registration.  I think I should be a communications Major and become a news reporter.  I seam to attract bad timing.

I have gone to Tulsa Community College Metro Campus 7 days straight both at lunch and at 5:30 p.m. long line everytime.  I have not been able to stay a full hour to get anything taken care of.

Why do I have to go to financial aid?  My account with the school is showing that I have not turned in all of my documnets (2010 tax return) which I did in April. However instead of the status showing as pending it shows as requesting..  causing the system to auto drop my classes each night.

Any suggestion's on convincing the school's (management team) to hire more financial aid workers? ::)

No chance on getting them to hire more, but the best time to go in is about 8:00 in the morning.  Personally, I try to register and take care of all of my financial aid as soon as they post the classes.  I think I got everything done back in about may or June.  You have filled out your FAFSA online, right?

Go to a less busy campus like West.

There is that as well, but at this time I don't think even West is all that much "less busy".
