Part Time Declaration Form

With the new change to financial aid making it so you have to declare you’re less than part time, has anyone else submitted the form and have had no update since? I was under the impression my aid would be adjusted and I would receive a new aid package, but so far they haven’t changed any numbers and it hasn’t been disbursed yet, and is still an estimation in Touchnet and unchanged in the Financial Aid tab on Patriot Web.

If most others are in the same boat I’ll be less worried, but it seems strange that the form has changed nothing. I submitted the form first day it was sent and it has been fully reviewed by their office.

New Owner 4 Month Update

(Sorry for deleting and reposting, forgot to crop photo)

Around 4 months ago, I posted in the Reddit that I had bought a 124 as my first ever car, and as a daily driver. And I wanted to provide some updates on it.

It’s the best car I’ve ever driven and it’s been a lot of fun. The responsiveness, the noise, and the fact that the top comes down makes it great. So much fun to drive and I’ve had no issues with it. I’ve been religious with oil changes, cleaning, and regular check ins.

Only complaint is the blind spots gained when the top is up. Obviously top up isn’t ideal, but the missus does get overwhelmed by the sun sometimes and I’m forced to go top up. Just sucks but it is what it is.

The CarPlay mod is also insanely worth it. Best thing I could’ve done. Works seamlessly besides the occasional connection issue.

Also, I am glad to say I haven’t caused any crashes, endangered others, etc as some folks were worried about. It’s been a time of no incidents and honestly, it’s just such a fun drive there’s no reason to take extreme risk. Plus I have things to live for that stop me from going 110 or whatever.

Anyways, thank everyone for their past words of wisdom and if anyone is thinking about buying one of these masterpieces, do it! You get compliments everywhere you go, it turns heads, but most of all it is insanely fun to drive yourself.
