ADN to MSN Financial Aid: What "Grade" Level?

I am getting ready to start my ADN-MSN program at the end of July and was filling out my FAFSA forms online today. One of the questions was what "Grade Level" I would be. I am not sure if a two year ADN is considered junior level?

Just curious if anyone else has experience with this. I am assuming I will just wind up talking to a FA Advisor in the end.

I'm not sure how your program works. Are you getting your BSN and then the MSN? If you are getting the BSN first, put 3rd year undergrad (assuming you've got 2 years form the ADN).The fed will only issue a certain amount of government subsidized loans towards your undergraduate degree (bachelor's of whatever). They re-set that at the graduate level (master's etc.) If you haven't received your full subsidized loan allotment for undergrad, take it. Once you're doing your graduate level coursework, your filing status will change accordingly.Of course, calling your program's financial aid office is always smartest for sticky things like this....

The University that I will be attending determines the grade level according to to the hours a person has accumulated. Doesn't matter if they are lower- or upper division.For example, I have 115 hours, all in the 1000-2000 level courses. (Yep, I managed to accrue three Associates degrees!) I am considered a Senior at my University.But, and this is probably the obvious, my degree plan still requires that I take many, many upper division courses. So I will be a Senior for a loooooong time!
