The Internet term "+1" usually means "me too."
+1 means me too, and -1 means me too!

Just got my denial, anyone won?!! ;)




Two of my kids got on the waiting list, and two didn't.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

I thought the most one can win is a place on the waiting list. Read the email. It was a lottery to get on the waiting list.

Plan accordingly for the day they clear the waiting list.

Once you’re on the waiting list you usually get within six months to a year assistances. Now with COVID the waiting list is much shorter because they have the Federal funding.

Don’t think they’re allowed to do that. It’s supposed to be a level playing field.

They’re not allowed to do that. I’m asking how much money depends on how many kids
