Annapurna Circuit trek
Annapurna Circuit Trek
The Annapurna circuit trek is one of the Himalayas most famous treks. This trek is achievable for most fit hill walkers and includes a crossing of the Thorong La (pass) at 5416 metres.
The trek is sociable and fun, not too demanding, and nights are spent in comfortable lodges where the food is fresh and good quality. It's a circular trek, going up one valley and over the high pass to descend a different valley. Part of this route is now accessible to vehicles but we still recommend walking the whole route!
The Annapurna Circuit trek has a variety of conditions, but most of the walk is on well-established paths and not too high. The crossing of the Thorong La is the highpoint of the trip both in terms of altitude and the breathtaking views of the mountains.
It is likely to be below freezing on several nights and the crossing of the Thorong La it will be very cold so prepare with warm clothing, a hat and gloves. The weather on the pass can be variable, and even occasionally impassable, so do expect some snow or ice.
You don't need to be a super hiker for this trip, but by the end, you will be feeling very mountain fit, hopefully, suntanned and filled with positivity! It's fair to say that this is a popular trek in the high season so you will meet lots of different nationalities on the trail.
We generally have groups of up to ten, and you will be led by Sherpa guides who work for our own regional company called Adventure Alternative Nepal. The groups meet up in Kathmandu where we have a guesthouse if you wish to use it, or we can book one of the many hotels in the capital. From there it's a flight to Pokhara and a drive to the start of the trek.
This 300-kilometre circuit is a challenging but rewarding trek, walked in a counterclockwise direction along the Marsyangdi Valley climaxing at an altitude of 5416m on the Thorung La Pass. With spectacular deep valleys and magnificent mountains, it is among the most popular treks in Nepal.
As the name suggests, the trail encircles Mount Annapurna (8091m) providing a scenery and cultural diversity of people and land, from passing through charming villages, home to the Gurung people and trekking through the subtropical jungle to a high, dry terrain resembling the Tibetan landscape.
From your first enquiry, you will have experienced people to talk to in the UK office who will give you an honest appraisal of the trek. This personal service and warm welcome will also await you in Kathmandu where Pasang Tendi Sherpa from Khari Khola, runs AA Nepal. He speaks excellent English and will be on hand all the time. He understands that this is more than trekking holiday; this is often a spiritual experience.

|Kathmandu [Itinerary Ends]
The main itinerary ends on day 22 after breakfast in Kathmandu and on the vast majority of occasions we are back in Kathmandu on day 21 with no problems. However, there are sometimes delays with the internal flights from Pokhara to Kathmandu. Therefore we recommend that you do not book international flights home that leave any earlier than the evening of day 22. This allows the possibility of making the internal flight (or drive if required) back to Kathmandu on day 22 if necessary. You can also arrange to stay an extra night in Kathmandu on the night of day 22 and fly out the following day. We can help you by helping to book the extra night's accommodation.
Please note: Due to the nature of trekking in the mountains and adventure travel, the itineraries here may need to be adapted on the ground to suit prevailing conditions of the mountains, weather and the group.
|Travel Time
|Arrive in Kathmandu and transfer to Hotel or Adventure Alternative guesthouse.
|Rest day and acclimatisation to jetlag. There is also the possibilty of Kathmandu city sightseeing. Trek briefing will follow.
|2 hours walking
|Drive from Kathmandu for around 6 hours to Besi sahar (800m). Lunch will be had on the way to Besi Sahar and you will arrive in the late afternoon. Again we take a local jeep or bus to Bulbule, with the possibility of using our own reserve tourist vehicle. Here you enter into the Annapurna Conservation where your guide will register you at the ACAP (Annapurna Conservation Area Project) checkpoint. This journey is followed by a 2 hour trek to Ngadi.
|5 hours walking
|Breakfast in the lodge and ready for a steep morning climb through villages and green trees to Bahundanda (1270m), where you will have great views of the surrounding Himalayan peaks. It will take 2 to 3 hours to reach this point, walking slowly. From Bahundanda the trail drops steeply to Lili Bhir and then follows an uncovered trail to Ghermu (1140m), with its wonderful views of the tall waterfall across the river. A further descend across the Marsyangdi River on a suspension bridge will bring you to Syange (1080m) to have lunch. The trail then climbs a steep 150m and crosses a cliff face to the stone village of Jagat, balanced on the edge of a steep sided valley, where you will stop for the evening.
|5 hours walking
|Jagat to Dharapani. The rocky trail descends before climbing through forest to Chamje (1410m). Again you will cross the Marsyangdi Khola, and along the valley with a steady uphill climb to Tal (1700m), which was previously a lakebed and the first village in the Manang district. This will take around 4hours. After lunch the walk continues through the valley, then up a stone stairway before descending to another crossing of the Marsyangdi river, past Karte to Dharapani where you will rest for the night.
|6 hours walking
|Dharapani to Chame. In the morning the trail climbs steeply for around 3hours, gaining 500m to Timang village where you will take rest and have lunch. After lunch it takes another 3hours of walking on flat terrain through forests of pine and fir to reach Chame. There are excellent views of Annapurna II as you approach Chame. Chame is the headquarters of the Manang district and here you will see many lodges and have time to explore the village to use internet cafes, the bank and shop for local souvenirs and trekking gear.
|5 hours walking
|Chame to Pisang. Today is a relatively easy day. The trail is mainly flat and runs through deep forest in a narrow valley and recrosses to the south bank of the Marsyangdi River at 3080m. Lunch will be had in the popular spot of Dhukur Pokhari, where you will have a great first view of the Paungda Danda rock face. After lunch there is a steady, gradual climb for one hour to Pisang, where you rest overnight. From Pisang you will have stunning views of many magnificent peaks, including; Pisang Peak (6091m), Chulu West (6419m), Chulu East (6584m), Lamjung Himal (6986m), Annapurna II (7937m) and Annapurna IV (7525m).
|4 ½ hours
|Pisang to Manang. The walk today goes through the drier upper part of the Manang district through pine forests. There are two routes to Manang, we take the southern route via the airstrip at Hongde (3420m) and continue to Mungji (3500m) and past the extraordinary village of Bragha Gompa to Manang where there are plenty of shops, a museum and an HRA post which you can visit for their daily lecture on altitude sickness. There are stunning views of Gangapurna (7454m) from Manang village.
|Rest day in Manang. Spend a day relaxing and acclimatizing with a day hike to the Ice Lake, high above the valley floor at 4600m.
|4 hours walking
|Manang to Yak Kharka. From Manang we have an ascent in the morning of almost 2000m towards the Thorung La and climb steadily, leaving the Marsyangdi Valley. Vegetation becomes sparse as we reach Yak Kharkha. We arrive in Yak Kharkha in time for lunch, and spend the rest of the evening here.
|4 hours walking
|Yak Kharka to Thorung Phedi. Today is a short walk and you will reach Thorung Phedi in the afternoon for lunch and spend the rest of the evening relaxing. The trail crosses the river at 4310m and climbs up through deserted scenery toward Thorung La. It is important to walk slowly and listen to your body. Fatigue from lack of oxygen to your muscles is common, but some people may feel nauseous and suffer from headaches. Drink lots of liquid and keep warm, give your body maximum opportunity to recover.
|8 hours walking
|Thorung Phedi to Muktinath. The day is long, but the efforts are worth it for the view from the top of Thorung La (5416m). We start early at 3am, have a quick breakfast then climb steeply for 5 hours to reach Thorung La at around 8 or 9am. The trail is well used and easy to follow, drink plenty of water and take your time. The pass is marked by chortens and prayer flags and there is even a tea shop along the way. The view of the Annapurnas, along the Great Barrier to Kali Gandaki Valley is astounding. From the pass there is a steady and sometimes slippery descent to Muktinath and you're trekking poles will be helpful. The walk down from the pass takes 3½ hours. Take time in Muktinath to observe the Tibetan traders and the shrines, in a grove of trees. They include a Buddhist gompa, a Vishnu temple and the Jwalami (Goddess of Fire) Temple. This temple protects a spring and natural gas jets that provide Muktinaths famous eternal flame.
|4 hours walking
|Muktinath to Marpha. An easy day, descending through desert-like land into the Tibetan-influenced village of Kagbeni (2840m). From Kagbeni to Jomsom (2760m) the trail is dusty and rocky, but fairly flat. Jomsom is like the city centre of the region and the first of the Thakali villages of the Kali Gandaki River. It is worth taking some time to visit the hospital and visitor centre here. Continuing south will lead you to the stone village of Marpha, which has a gompa and small shrines. You will stop here for the evening.
|6 hours walking
|Marpha to Kalopani. The walk is flat for around 4hours to Larjung. The trail leads you around Chhairo Gompa to Chimang village, which provides wonderful views of Dhaulagiri (8167m), the world's sixth largest mountain. The walk continues through Khobang and Larjung, the base for an expedition up the Dhaulagiri Icefall, offering a good view of Nilgiri North (7061m) and leads you into Kalopani.
|6 hours walking
|Kalopani to Tatopani. The trail takes you through Ghasa, the last Thakali village in the valley, and then branches down the east side of the narrowing gorge for a couple of hours. The trail rejoins at Rupse Chhahara (1560m) where you will have lunch alongside the Rupse waterfall. After lunch it is a short walk to Tatopani, known for its hot springs.
|4 hours walking
|Tatopani to Sikha. An uphill walk through a forest of rhododendrons and Ghara village, which is surrounded by stoned walls and farming land where they grow wheat, potatoes and other vegetables for the local people. Lunch will be had in Ghara, where there is great view of Dhaulagiri (8167m). After lunch, the trail leads steadily uphill on rocky ground and uncovered surroundings to Sikha for around one hour.
|3 ½ hours walking
|Sikha to Gorepani. A short walk, mainly uphill through Sikha village to Gorepani. You will arrive in the afternoon for lunch and relax here for the night, and prepare for the trek to Poon Hill in the early morning.
|6 hours walking
|Gorepani to Tadapani. Early morning climb for around 1 - 2 hours to Poon Hill (3210m) to see the sunrise over the Himalayas, including the Doulagiri and Annapurna Range. Back at the lodge for breakfast and a walk descending for 4 - 5 hours to Tadapan
|4 hours walking
|Tadapani to Ghandruk. The trail leads downhill through a pine forest for 4hours, until you reach Ghandruk. On the walk you will have beautiful views of the Himalayan range.
|5 hours walking
|Ghandruk to Nayapul & Pokhara. An easy descent of 700m for 5hours to Nayapul. Drive from Nayapul for one hour to Pokhara where you'll stay overnight, ready to depart on an early flight to Kathmandu the next morning.
|Pokhara flight* to arrive in Kathmandu in the morning. The remainder of the day can be spent resting and/or sightseeing.
|Itinerary ends after breakfast. You can depart Kathmandu later this day, but see note above about possible internal flight delays.
*These flights 'fly by sight' so if there is cloud cover or bad weather there can be delays. If necessary we can be flexible and adapt the itinerary to catch up on lost days, but if the planes can't fly then there is little that we can do except wait. Occasionally the planes can't fly but helicopters can, if you prefer this option we can organise it but there would be a supplemental charge. This doesn't happen very often but if your trek is very early, very late, or out of the main season you should consider possible impacts. Please read our More Info page about Himalayan Flight Delays

Our prices are competitive and good value, and we offer quality, service, security and an ethical stance on tourism in a developing country. We don't want to be so expensive to run fewer trips and have our staff idle, but on the other hand we believe that running cheap trips that promote the practise of skimming budgets would result in the porters getting next to nothing, which is something we cannot consider.
Additionally we plan treks with sufficient rest days and with achievable daily altitude increases which gives good time to acclimatise. Reducing the number of days may make the price cheaper but the chances of successfully completing the trek also greatly reduce.
We include professional staff and a porter for each member. We do not operate kitties and we use an excellent hotel in Kathmandu with which we have built up a strong relationship over the years.
We have our own licensed company in Kathmandu, Adventure Alternative Nepal and full time staff to operate all our treks, climbs and tours in Nepal.

Annapurna Circuit Trek - fitness and terrain
Doing a trek for seventeen days straight inevitably is tiring and it's certainly a benefit to be fit, but don't forget that during the trek you are exercising every day and you will end up wonderfully mountain fit and weather beaten! So do train beforehand, do lots of walking with a day sack, but don't overdo it. It's not a marathon, but there are lots of hills to go up and down! The high pass is quite challenging too. Work on your thigh muscles, calf muscles and shoulders for carrying the bag (it's only about 5kg but it feels like 10 when you've been walking uphill in the sun). The days aren't too long, the path is fine, and the porters help a lot, but the enjoyment of this trip will be much more if you have worked on your fitness before the holiday. For those people who want to lose a bit of weight, this trip will be perfect. Come back toned, healthy, detoxed and several kilos lighter!
Terrain on the Annapurna Circuit trek
The Annapurna Circuit is a well trodden path all the way though this can be rocky and uneven in parts. It is not precipitous and there is no rock climbing or 'mountaineering' which requires equipment. It is a walk all the way, although some of the hills can be steep and never-ending!
You will meet many people along the way, and also yaks. There is only one rule of the road when meeting an oncoming yak, and that is to always ensure you step to one side, towards the inside of the trail, to avoid the cliff edge on the other side!
Poles are useful but not necessary, depending on whether you have problems with knees and if you have a personal preference for using them. Higher up, the open slopes and moraine may give you added reassurance with a pole, but again the path is quite easy to follow.
The highest point of the trek to Thorung La Pass (5416m) climbs steeply, and at times the pass can be slippery so care must be taken. But the path is well used and the ascent is not overly difficult.
Lightweight hiking boots with a high ankle are recommended for the trek, to protect you against possibly going over on an ankle, heavy boots will be hot and heavy and cumbersome. Cross trainers are popular, but cold in the morning up high.
Accommodation on the Annapurna circuit trek
Accommodation will be in comfortable lodges and tea houses run by local families, unless people specify a preference for tents. Each lodge has a central communal area with stove, while the bedrooms are unheated with two beds and mattresses and pillows. You will need to bring a sleeping bag (3 season is normally enough), and the lodge will lend you a blanket if you ask.
The lodges generally have showers which are powered by gas and they use the infamous 'drop' toilets (some lodges use a flush system now). Sometimes we use tents which are two person mountain tents, and we will provide foam mattresses. The tents are pitched close by the lodge and eating is done indoors.
Fitness for the Annapurna Circuit trek
The trek is not a forced march and the pace is always slow, the days generally being shorter than a day hike at home.
We do recommend that you embark on a good fitness programme at least 6 weeks prior to your trip though, and one that builds up general stamina and specific leg muscle groups. There is nothing like hiking with a rucksack to train for a trek in the Himalayas, so the best advice is to get out into the hills as often as you can. You are likely to carry about 5 kilos in your day sack so this is a good weight to work with.
If you are going to be using the gym then concentrate on step machines which work on the thigh and calf muscles, and try to build your heart rate up to 50% above resting rate. Any cardiovascular activity is good, but remember that swimming will not train the correct muscle groups so it must be added to other exercises to be effective. Exercise groups like bodypump, Pilates and aerobic are all excellent preparation for a trek like this, especially those which work on core strength, balance and stability.
Adventure Alternative support
The porters will carry your main bag up to a maximum weight of 15 kgs and cater for all the group needs, including assisting you if you need to go back down the valley. Unless specifically tenting, all accommodation is in lodges or teahouses which are very well equipped, warm and sociable.
Pasang Tendi Sherpa is our operations manager in Kathmandu and Director of Adventure Alternative Nepal. He organises all the staff, equipment, permits and hotel arrangements. You will have his telephone number, or the staff at the hotel desk can call him for you. He is the organiser, translator, problem solver, advisor and the main link between you and the UK office. He will talk to the Sherpa guides regularly on the mountain and can make arrangements while you are on trek.
You also have continued support from the main office in Northern Ireland. Should a problem arise of significant proportion then you only need to call us, there is still an opportunity to communicate since most lodges now have satellite phones.
Kit List
Annapurna Circuit Trek kit list
The basic idea of the kit we will take is to keep you warm, dry, protected from the sun, able to move comfortably in the mountains and able to be comfortable in the evenings and night.
You will be given a detailed kit list after booking, but the main points to cover are as follows:-
- BAGS - Rucksack or duffle bag for a porter to carry plus a day pack to be carried by you

Kathmandu has an area called Thamel which is full of hundreds of equipment shops, each one an emporium of new, used, quality and fake equipment all very reasonably priced for rental and buying. You can buy almost anything needed for any trek.
Luggage Allowance on Internal Flights
Please note that standard luggage limits on internal flights are 12.5kg (combined hold and hand luggage). You can pay for extra luggage allowance at $1/kg. However, note that the amount that the plane can carry also has a limit! You can of course wear your trekking boots and jacket to help cut down on the weight of your bag.

New clinical research released today shows that eating pulses - beans, peas, lentils and chickpeas - can help combat chronic diseases such as heart disease, obesity and diabetes and contribute to overall good health.
The results from six clinical trials were released today at the Pulse Health & Food Symposium in Toronto, Ontario. Leading researchers from across Canada as well as Purdue University and the University of Florida presented their findings to more than 140 researchers, health professionals, academics, food developers, government officials and industry representatives.
"Chronic diseases and other health problems are on the rise," says Peter Watts, Director of Market Innovation for Pulse Canada. "These research results add to the body of evidence that shows beans, peas and lentils have enormous potential to reduce cholesterol, fight cardiovascular disease, help with insulin management and improve gut health."
The clinical trial results show pulses can help manage weight-related health problems, such as type II diabetes and heart disease. Regular consumption of beans and other pulses can contribute to reduced serum cholesterol and triglycerides, which are two major risk factors for cardiovascular disease. The research also linked pulse consumption to improved arterial health and lower blood pressure.
Several studies showed regular consumption of pulses can be an important tool in combating obesity as they help increase feelings of fullness and contribute to weight loss. Diabetics can also benefit from pulses, which have a low glycemic index and can help regulate insulin levels.
"With growing rates of childhood obesity, an aging population and increasing concerns about health issues, finding solutions to improve the health of Canadians and people around the world is becoming increasingly important," says Watts. "Pulses are a prescription for healthy living right out of the grocery cart."
The clinical trials were funded through the Pulse Innovation Project, a Pulse Canada project which received a $3.2 million contribution from Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada's (AAFC) Science and Innovation program. The project's objective is to increase pulse utilization in North America to provide health and nutrition benefits to all Canadians and increase demand for Canadian pulses. The Pulse Food Symposium is a federal-provincial-territorial initiative made possible through funding from AAFC's Agricultural Policy Framework. Pulse Canada is the national association that represents growers, processors and traders of Canadian pulse crops.
Backgrounder - Clinical Trial Results
1. "The effect of whole pulses and their fractions on regulation of food
intake, metabolic control, and components of the metabolic syndrome"
Researcher: Dr. G. Harvey Anderson, University of Toronto
Co-investigators: France Cho, Christina Wong, Rebecca Mollard, Bohdan
Luhovyy, Anthony Hanley
Research at the University of Toronto shows that blood sugar and
hunger are reduced after eating pulses (lentils, chickpeas, navy
beans and yellow peas) and that they continue to reduce blood sugar
and hunger following subsequent meals. The research also showed that
eating pulses for eight weeks improves blood sugar control, reduces
the amount of food and calories eaten and decreases the waist line.
Researchers concluded that regular consumption of pulses could lead
to reduced risk of diseases related to excess body weight.
2. "Exploring the health benefits associated with daily pulse
consumption in individuals with peripheral arterial disease"
Researcher: Dr. Peter Zahradka, Canadian Centre for Agri-Food
Research in Health and Medicine, University of Manitoba
Co-investigators: Dr. Carla Taylor, Dr. Randy Guzman, Wendy Weighell
Researchers from the University of Manitoba have found there are
specific health benefits associated with daily pulse consumption in
participants with peripheral arterial disease (PAD). PAD, a systemic
cardiovascular disease, reduces blood flow to the limbs. The study
supports the traditional view that pulses (dried beans, peas, lentils
and chickpeas) are healthy. According to the study, regular pulse
consumption increased the intake of dietary fibre, folate, Vitamin C,
iron, zinc, potassium and protein. Eating half a cup of mixed pulses
per day for eight weeks also significantly reduced circulating
cholesterol levels and reduced the body mass index of study
participants. Total cholesterol decreased by five per cent and LDL
cholesterol was reduced by 8.75 per cent.
3. "Effect of daily pulse consumption on intestinal microbiota,
gastrointestinal response and serum lipids in healthy adults"
Researchers: Dr. Amanda Wright and Dr. Alison Duncan, University of
Co-investigators: E Farnworth, J Boye, S Tosh
Research at the University of Guelph has found that regular daily
inclusion of pulses in the diets of healthy individuals is well
tolerated and can improve gut health. The research shows promising
effects on gastrointestinal bacterial populations, which have been
linked with improved health. The observed changes in intestinal
bacterial population and metabolic activity suggest that pulses have
prebiotic activity in humans. Positive changes were also seen in
fecal pH and enzyme activity.
4. "Effectiveness of Two Levels of Pulse Consumption on Caloric
Restriction Adherence and Chronic Disease Risk"
Researcher: Dr. Megan McCrory, Bastyr University (WA) / Purdue
University (IN)
Research at Bastyr University in Washington and Purdue University in
Indiana found that consuming the recommended 0.5 cups a day of pulses
improves weight loss success and helps to reduce chronic disease
risk. Participants consuming the recommended amount of pulses (0.5
cups a day) had the greatest weight loss success compared to the
group consuming no pulses (less than 1 tbsp per day). Participants
consuming a large serving of pulses daily for six weeks had a smaller
waist size and lower diastolic blood pressure by the end of the
study. These participants also had improved fasting insulin levels as
compared to those consuming less or no pulses.
5. "The Prebiotic Effects of Chickpeas in Healthy Human Subjects"
Researcher: Wendy Dahl, University of Saskatchewan (now at University
of Florida)
Co-investigators: U Fernando, A Van Kessel, G Zello, R Tyler
Researchers from the University of Saskatchewan and the University of
Florida have found that regular daily inclusion of pulses in the
diets of healthy individuals may improve gut health. The research
suggests that regular consumption of pulses may increase the levels
of beneficial gut bacteria (Lactobacillus and Bifidobacteria species)
and reduce the levels of harmful bacteria (putrefactive and
pathogenic bacteria).
6. "The effects of whole and fractionated yellow peas on indices of
cardiovascular disease and diabetes"
Researcher: Dr. Peter Jones, Richardson Centre for Functional Foods
and Nutraceuticals, University of Manitoba
Co-investigators: Christopher Marinangeli
Researchers at the Richardson Centre for Functional Foods and
Nutraceuticals at the University of Manitoba have found that the
dietary fibre-rich content of peas is key to regulating insulin
management in overweight hyper-cholesterolemic adults. Participants
consuming muffins made with either whole pea flour or pea fibre had
fasting insulin levels that were 15 per cent lower than participants
consuming control muffins made with wheat flour. This research also
indicates that consuming pea fibre significantly decreases insulin
resistance by up to 18 per cent. Insulin resistance, a condition
where the body no longer properly uses the insulin it produces,
increases the risk of elevated blood glucose levels and the
development of diabetes, which affects two million Canadians.

If you need some cash now, then you are in a better position with licensed short term financing companies especially with recommendations from friends or trusted testimonials. This way, you will not be able to suffer from dubious lenders with hidden fees or predatory loansharks. And depending on how much you earn, you may actually have an easier time with a pay monthly installment cash advance given the smaller amount each month. However, you will need to understand that before getting 3 month payday loans, you must first adhere to the lenders' requirements and qualifications.
For example, banks will need you to have good credit above 700 score before being actually approved. Moreover, banks do not really extend such credit except in cases where the borrower is securing the debt with assets or he has a co-signer for the monthly payment cash advance for people receiving supplementary income. On the other hand, even if you do not have high credit scores, you may still get to borrow 2500 dollar loans with monthly payments from legit lenders.
To keep things simple, many lending websites usually do not ask you to fax lots of documents for a 2,500 dollars loan. This allow them to quickly approve requests and transfer the funds directly to your checking account. So, when you are flooded with all the online lenders out there, note the ones well regarded and trusted by many consumers when they need convenient financing with guaranteed no hidden costs.
To check whether you can borrow 2,500 for over 100 days, you only have to meet these basic criteria:

Another good way to access 2500 online loans with monthly payments is to get credit cards with high limits. Banks issue credit cards based on your own or company profile, which is usually treated different from the owners' personal credit scores. You may personally have a low credit score but perhaps still use your credit cards/lines to borrow money with longer payment schedules.
More importantly, lines of credit with high limits can be used with no collateral. Properties and assets registered under your name need not be pledged in order to get a legit direct loan, although you could still choose to do if your business profile is not established yet, you want to borrow more money or to get some cost savings on the debt money since larger amounts are involved here.
Nonbank lenders providing urgent high interest APR borrowing that may be prohibited in some states. If you are financially savvy, there is no problem with using personal credit. However, some people misuse fast installment loans and continuously roll over the payment dates, you end up paying more in interest than you originally borrowed. Many people become stuck in the cycle of making interest-only payments, which causes them to get in further financial trouble. Only take what you can afford to pay back and pay off your obligations on its original due date.

The first card was created using my Silhouette Cameo and SVG cut files from Lori Whitlock. She sells her files from the Silhouette Design Store as well as from her own website at Lori Whitlock. I used my white Coconut Colorbox Ink Blends pigment ink around the edges of the pieces. I love inking with white when I use soft colors because it creates a worn, watercolor look that is quite pretty. The sentiment is stamped with an older Studio Calico stamp.
My son, who lives local, just celebrated his 27th birthday. This seems impossible to me because he's still my baby. :) He is a Sommelier and a Bartender so this easy to make 6-pack box card was well received.
SVGcuts. I'm going to link this to the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge "Make It Masculine". I haven't done a challenge in over a year!
Have a creative day!

My conservative cousin from New York is basically an optimist, as befits a true Reaganite. But right now he's far from optimistic about the New York City mayoral race or about the city's future.
The analysis appears below. For more on the radicalism of the man New York almost certainly will elect mayor, see Stanley Kurtz.
The chances of Joe Lhota the GOP candidate for New York City Mayor winning are close to zero. Polls show him trailing Democratic nominee Bill de Blasio by as much as 60% [correction, 40%]. If the polls are accurate this gap between the major parties is unprecedented. Despite its reputation as a liberal citadel New York hasn't elected a Democratic mayor in 20 years.
The main cause for this wide gap is a negative media blitz whose playbook comes directly out of tactics used by political action groups to tar Mitt Romney in the last Presidential campaign. This campaign was paid for not by some lefty group like MoveOn.Org. It was orchestrated by Lhota's GOP primary opponent John Catsimatidis.
Despite his years of successful service as Giuliani's Deputy and head of the regional transit authority, Lhota was unknown to most voters. Catsimatides ads depicted Lhota as a cruel man who raised tolls and subway fares. The truth was the increases were necessary and approved before Lhota assumed command.
The two third rails of New York City politics are subway fares and residential rent control. No one can be elected who campaigns on significant changes to either misbegotten taxpayer subsidy.
While never going quite as far as the ads that accused Romney of causing a woman to die of cancer, Lhota was depicted as showing disrespect to the police force in charge of the World Trade Center on September 11th. In an ill-considered off the cuff remark Lhota called the Port Authority police "Mall Cops."
Whatever the relative effectiveness of this police force as compared to the NYPD, it was a totally inappropriate comment. Many of these officers performed heroically at the Trade Center and 37 paid the ultimate price. In a devastating ad, a retired Port Authority cop who was in the Towers that dreadful day conveyed his hurt and outrage. – "when a bureaucrat like Joe Lhota calls me a mall cop he offends every police officer. Mr. Lhota I'm no mall cop. Got it."
In the days before the Primary these ads were all over TV. For most voters they served as their introduction to Joe Lhota. Though effective in reaching the broader NYC electorate, Catsimatidis ads weren't enough to put him over the top in the GOP primary. Lhota who had more organizational support and the endorsement of Mayor Giuliani won a narrow victory.
The Democratic nominee and presumptive next Mayor Bill De Blasio is a far out lefty even by NYC standards. He subscribes to liberation theology and admires the Sandinistas. Defying a State Department travel ban he took his wife to Cuba for their honeymoon.
Oh, and he also predicts that Islam will soon be a dominant force in politics. DiBlasio says he wants to build an alliance with the jihadists.
I shudder to think what my hometown could look like in four years if DiBlasio can succeed in implementing his agenda.
Say what you want about Rudy Giuliani and Michael Bloomberg — and there certainly is much that can be said against Bloomberg — New York has been a reasonably well-governed city for the past 20 years. That is about to change in a big way, with big consequences.

Lal Jose's latest directorial venture Pullipulikalum Aattinkuttiyum can be regarded as the best comedy entertainer of the year. The movie has been shot in the locales of Kuttanada. Pullipulikalum Aattinkuttiyum is a return to the mood and format of Lal Jose' earlier films like Meesa Madhavan and Chandhupottu.
Chakka Gopan (Kunchacko Boban) is a house boat owner. Gopan has three brothers who spend all their time sleeping. They are absolute lazybones who doesn't believe in working. As a sport they indulge in feuds, and since many people are scared of bullying trio, they try to settle the score with their sweet-tempered little brother Chakka Gopan.
Kainakari Jayasree (Namitha Pramod) is a classical dancer. Gopan appoints her as the in-house artist, and they perform for the tourists who hire his boat. He tries to impress the foreigners with classical dance. Gopan falls deeply in love with her. How Gopan manages to marry Jayasree and make his brothers come on the right track, form the rest of the story.
Pullipulikalum Aattinkuttiyum presents Kunchacko in all-new avatar. It's a through comedy role and Kunchacko has done a brilliant job. Another highlight of the movie is that S Kumar is cranking the camera for Lal Jose after a long interval.
The serene beauty of Kuttanad has been picturised and utilised well by the director. The place can be regarded as another highlighted tourist spot in the Malayalam cinema after Gavi, which was picturised in the movie Ordinary.
Music composed by Vidyasagar is an average one. Cinematography is incredible. Coming to the performances, all the star cast have done justice to their roles.

Pullipulikalum Aattinkuttiyum
This Lal Jose movie is a complete family entertainer and a comedy flick. One would laugh to the maximum watching the movie.
Kunchacko Boban
Kunchacko Boban is seen playing a very different role in this film. He has got even a new look in this movie. He has done complete justice to his role as Chakka Gopan.
Namitha Pramod
Namitha's performance in this movie proves that she is well-suited to do even comedy roles. Her onscreen chemistry with Kunchacko Boban has worked out well in the movie.
Lal Jose
Pullipulikalum Aattinkuttiyum is another comedy flick from the director Lal Jose. This movie can be rated better than his earlier flick Elsamma Enna Aankutty.
Kuttanad Beauty
The Kuttanad beauty has been beautifully picturised by the cinematographer. Hats off to him for his incredible work.
Star Cast
The movie has a huge star cast including Kunchacko Boban, Namitha Pramod, Irshad, Shammi Thilakan, Joju, Shiju, Suraj Venjaranmmoodu, Harisree Ashokan, KPAC Lalitha, Bindu Panicker, Reena Basheer, Thesni Khan, Seema G Nair, etc.
All actors have done complete justice to their roles. Comedy performances done by Suraj, Joju, Shiju and Irshad are commendable.
Kunchacko's new look has suited well for his character and it is main highlight in the film. The Pullipuli brothers are also commendable. Nice comedy without any cliche. Good direction by Lal Jose.
There was a lack of flow in script at times. Story line seemed like a thin wafer strip. Music is not up to the expectation.
A watchable comedy-family entertainer. One who loves nature will surely love this movie.

SOURCE: "The Genre of Richard II," in William Shakespeare's Richard II, edited by Harold Bloom, Chelsea House Publishers, 1988, pp. 7-35.
In the following essay, originally published in 1972, Nevo assesses Richard II as a tragedy, rather than as a history play, and contends that despite some shortcomings, the play contains a movement approximating that of Shakespeare's great tragedies.
Beyond the woeful or happy outcome brought about by the catastrophe Elizabethan dramatic theory did not distinguish between the structure of tragedy and comedy; neither were the dramatic practitioners possessed of a theory of genre which would enable them to distinguish with any rigor between tragedy and history. Polonius's familiar puzzlement is not only his own but the age's failure to achieve radical definitions. Thus the "chronicle" plays of the period, which deal with the fall of princes, great changes of fortune, tyrannical intrigues, and Machiavellian betrayals, based upon no clear...

The fast-spreading worm known as Nimda is making its way across Europe, according to network administrators and security consultants on the continent.
"Thousands of companies, small and large and in all industries, have been hit," said Marius van Oers, a virus research engineer at Network Associates Inc. in Amsterdam. "The Internet is slowing down because of the virus scanning for vulnerable systems using port 80, the port used for Web traffic. E-commerce companies are victimized because of the slowdown of the Internet."
"We've had about 800 complaints in Europe, 15 percent of them from corporate customers," said Andrea Wolf, public relations manager Central Europe for security company Symantec Corp. Each complaint refers to a single network, which could encompass anywhere from a handful to many thousands of computers, she added. She declined to name any of the affected companies, citing privacy concerns.
"It's entirely comparable with Code Red," a malicious worm affecting Windows NT and Windows 2000 operating systems, that was first reported in July, Wolf said.
The malicious code, which can spread via e-mail attachments, HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) or across shared hard disks inside networks, can infect all 32-bit Windows systems, including Windows 98, 2000, Millennium Edition, XP, and NT. [See "Major new worm poses serious threat," Sept. 18.]Nimda is spreading more quickly than Code Red, but appears to be causing less damage, said virus consultant Andreas Marx of GEGA IT-Solutions GbR in Magdeburg, Germany.
"I know a few people who have been affected by it, mostly smaller firms. They've reacted by cutting off their e-mail servers," he said.
Larger companies in Germany, including Deutsche Bank AG, Deutsche Telekom AG, Lufthansa AG, and Siemens AG, all said they had not been substantially affected by the attacks.
Siemens temporarily took its e-mail and Web servers down while virus-protection software was updated, a spokesman said.
"We've put a multilevel packet of measures into place, a carefully maintained firewall, and our PCs have regularly updated virus-protection software," said a Deutsche Telekom spokesman. "We're hopeful we can prevent any damage."
But Van Oers said the viciousness of Nimda had taken the experts by surprise.
"We think the spreading started in Europe, where the first sample was received in Germany on Tuesday at about 2 p.m. local time. At the time we didn't think this one would get far. We were wrong."
Another observer added that the frequency of virus attacks is on the rise.
"One interesting statistic is that the current virus-to-e-mail ratios are running at one virus in every 300 e-mails, which is up from one in 700 in October last year," said Helen Desmond, a U.K. spokeswoman for e-mail security services company MessageLabs Ltd.
If current trends continue, MessageLabs estimates that by 2007 to 2008, one in 10 e-mail messages will be infected by a virus and by 2013 that number could grow to as large as one in two, Desmond said. Furthermore, those numbers don't even take into account peak rates when new a worm like Nimda is released which can make matters far worse, she said.

Our Lowest Paid Workers Are Set To Take Home A Little Extra Each Week
Minimum wage boost kicks in on July 1
The 2.3 million Australians on the minimum wage will get a $22.20 a week pay rise from next month.
The Fair Work Commission says its 3.3 per cent increase will not lead to inflationary pressure, and is highly unlikely to have any measurable negative impact on employment.
"It will, however, mean an improvement in the real wages for those employees who are reliant on the national minimum wage and modern award minimum wages and an improvement in their relative living standards," FWC president Justice Iain Ross said today.
Unions had been calling for a $45 a week increase, while business groups wanted pay packets to jump by around $8.10 to $10.10.

Bluetooth phone quality
- I've had this issue as well with the 8x. Swapped the phone once to rule out hardware, and I've been able to reproduce the issue with the Bluetooth system in several different vehicles. The issue is so bad I've stopped using the Bluetooth at all for the moment.
Does anyone know if a smaller batch might exist with the bad Bluetooth issue?12-16-2012 07:10 PMLike 1
- I have the same issue as the OP with my 8x. My previous phones had no issue whatsoever. It is really disappointing because all other features of the phone seem great.12-25-2012 07:34 PM
- Another person with exactly the same issue:
a. Previous phone/car combination was perfection (Blackberry Bold, Toyota Tacoma Pickup, w hand free bluetooth enabled option)
b. Received sound from callers and audio streamed via bluetooth to stereo are great
c. People tell me they can not hear me on the bluetooth microphone in the truck. If I go to speakerphone on the 8X it's fine. Does not matter if truck is moving or not, nor does it matter if 3G or LTE connection, nor number of bars. Simply stated, Bluetooth audio between the truck and the phone is terrible.
Have seen dozens on this forum with the same issue. I live/work in Redmond and will try to establish some kind of dialog with the Windows Phone group. I'll report back here with any progress. Thanks. Scott01-13-2013 08:06 PMLike 1

When using my plantronics m20 earpiece it has terrible sound quality, like static, crackling noise. I've used this plantronics bluetooth earpiece (and other brands like motorola) for years with all kinds of cell phones (including blackberry) and all with Verizon. This is the first major problem I've ever had with bluetooth earpiece sound quality.
My brother also just got a new Verizon HTC win 8x and his bluetooth sounds SO AWFUL I asked him not to use it.
Therefore, I think it must either be a hardware problem with the HTC or software problem with Win 8x?
I MUST use my bluetooth for work and play while multitasking (driving or doing chores around in the house).
Any common agreement here?
If it can't be resolved (with hardware or software) then I'm returned this and going to try the (verzion) Apple iphone 5
PS I'm a very busy person. I was willing to try the Win 8. But If I have to go through all this rigmarole, then I will try the apple product line and then stick with it. I'm too busy to experiment with "NEW IDEAS" if they simple don't work or are undertested in order to fulill some manufacturer's sales quota. And no, I willl NOT fly the Dreamliner 787 for at least a year until all the kinks are removed - or ever, if they take it off the market after a fatal crash.01-20-2013 10:11 AM
- I use the LG 730 Stereo headset with my Lumia 920 and used the LG 700 with my Samsung Focus S... Over the years I have used various playtronics, Motorola, Jabber, Jawbones but non worked as well as the LG 730 Stereo headset... I have had issues in the past with range too... One thing turns me away from certain brands is proprietary charging. The older JawBones used this magnet charger pain in the *** if I needed a charge on the go and had to go without but I think the new one uses the mini USB now... Certainly some phones or older ones had horrible Bluetooth range. I remember I always had to put my phone in an upper pocket but seems now with the Lumia 920 and my LG 730 it's not an issue anymore...01-20-2013 10:47 AM
- I disagree. My Verizon 8x has the best sounding and most reliable Bluetooth connection I have ever had. I have a new Nissan Maxima and it works flawlessly. My Note 2, SGIII and Droid DNA did not work as well as the 8x.01-20-2013 03:46 PM
- I'm starting to thing that this is a hardware related issue and not a software issue, unless a defect actually causes better bluetooth audio. I myself have had no problems with either my Plantronics bluetooth headset nor the bluetooth system in my car, and have actually had people tell me that I sound better when on the bluetooth then when using the phone's built in microphone.01-20-2013 09:55 PM
- Just to weight in:
HTC8x bought about 2 weeks ago.
Firmware: 1532.20.10110.605
Radio SW: 0.17.50.1025
Radio HW: 2.126.3.D4
2010 Toyota Forerunner
My Android 2 worked fine with BT on the Forerunner. My 8x has exactly the same distortion issues. Issues are intermittent. If I call and the recipient has distorted reception from me, I hang up and call again and usually get a clear call. Initial call distorts for recipient about 1/2 the time. Tried turning down handset volume but that didn't cure it, I did not however test that scientifically. Will do so now.
Any updates from HTC support from anyone?
IZICC: Thanks for starting this and the good work on tracking down the issues symptoms.02-16-2013 11:35 AM
- Good morning. I have had the same issues with my Verizon HTC 8x. I have a 2012 Volkswagen Jetta TDI with Fender System (which I believe is mfd. by Panasonic). Bluetooth was perfect with my iPhone 4s in this car. The 8x was essentially unusable using the car's Bluetooth system.
After trying seemingly everything, I found the fix to be to turn the PHONE's volume down while on a Bluetooth call (this volume is separate from other volumes on the phone) - it defaults to 10/10. Once you do this, you will likely need to adjust the radio volume up to the desired level. This apparently adjusts the phone's mic volume to a suitable level. I am now very happily using my 8x with the VW's Bluetooth system.

- Thanks Scott, I thought I tried this, but can't say for sure. I will give this a shot.03-06-2013 02:01 PM
- Scott: Tried that, didn't work for me. I called HTC and Verizon and they think its a bad BT antenna. Replacement phone received today. Will update after putting it in use.03-11-2013 01:52 PM
- Ok, so I tried this on the way home today. It does make a difference; with the defaulted 10/10 volume, the background noise was unbearable, and my wife could barely hear me. I turned it down all the way to 0/10; it was better. I then tried every other increment, and 1/10 was the best. Anything above 1, and the background noise was too much. Now, it was "better" than before (10/10), however, nowhere near how good my Android bluetooth quality was..03-11-2013 06:21 PM
- Okay, tried my replacement phone. No good - same exact experience even when turning down the volume to 0 or 1. Called VZW and got escalated to Windows Phone support. This is a known and acknowledged issue with HTC according to VZW and they are waiting a software fix from HTC. No est time of delivery.03-14-2013 04:37 PM
- Is there already some ETA on the update, i'm using HTC 8S same problem with volkswagen RNS51007-18-2013 08:57 AM
- Interesting.
We also have a bluetooth loud issue as follows in thread... HTC 8X very loud over hands free Started by Dale714, 08-04-2013 05:45 PM
Windows Phone HTC 8X.
Has anyone got a fix to solve very loud volume when using hands free car kits. When making a call using hands free kit, the person on the other end reports the sound is VERY loud. This occures when making or recieving calls. My team have tried different car types and different phones. The consistency is the windows phone. We have tried turning down the volum on the car kits and on the phone... but still way to loud.
Kind regards

The words from our Ardas acknowledge the challenge facing us today: "Dekh ke andith kita", "Remember those who have seen the fault of others, but overlook those faults." Every time we pray, we acknowledge that human shortcoming of seeing the faults in others. This is normal, human behavior. But through the grace of our Guru we can transcend this human condition and be granted the divine inspiration to look beyond the flaws to see God in every human being. If it were easy, we would not have to pray daily for the strength and ability to do so. It is extremely difficult. How important is this ability? Obviously very important because we remember those who achieve this in the same breath as our remembrance of the Punj Piare, the Four Sons of the Tenth Master and the Forty Liberated One. We must seek that Divine aspect within our human consciousness in order to achieve this.
At a time when the world seems to be taking sides against us we cannot allow ourselves to start picking each other apart. We lose before we even begin if we cannot overcome the human propensity to find fault and allow the Divine Spark within us to see that Divine Spark within others. My humble request is that we avoid the natural human tendency to rush to judgment, find the ability to look beyond these faults for the moment and maintain our unity.
In 1971 I made a decision that changed my life forever. I became a Sikh of the Guru. During my thirty years as a Sikh the hardest thing I have had to deal with has not been the negative reactions of the American people to my turban and flowing beard or the bigotry and discrimination I experience at the hands of the citizenry of my native land. What has been most difficult and painful for me has been how the members of my chosen religious community seem to find ways to create fights within itself, to allow itself to be divided; to let itself be torn apart from within by seeing every difference, then dissecting and magnifying them. One of my early lessons about my new faith and my new religious family was that if we did not have a common enemy to fight we often turned upon ourselves and began to tear ourselves apart. It was so difficult watching the fights, which were usually power struggles over position and control. It still is.

At The Gates (SE)
They are back. Finally giving in to overwhelming demand, the Bjørler-brothers have put The Haunted on hold for the summer of 2008 and reunited with Tomas Lindberg for a string of dates with At the Gates, one of which will include Hole in the Sky. With milestones such as «The Red in the Sky is Ours» and «Slaughter of the Soul», At the Gates are probably THE most influential Scandinavian thrash/death metal band ever. This one-off event is slated to become something out of the ordinary.


text: AnandTech - For Intel, the road to their first real competitive smartphone SoC has been a long one. Shortly after joining AnandTech and beginning this journey writing about both smartphones and the SoC space, I remember hopping on a call with Anand and some Intel folks to talk about Moorestown. While we never did see Moorestown in a smartphone, we did see it in a few tablets, and even looked at performance in an OpenPeak Tablet at IDF 2011. Back then performance was more than competitive against the single core Cortex A8s in a number of other devices, but power profile, lack of ISP, video encode, decode, or PoP LPDDR2 support, and the number of discrete packages required to implement Moorestown, made it impossible to build a smartphone around.

With prom fast approaching and summer on the way, many high school girls at North Tama are using tanning beds to get their summer glow back after the long winter season. Using tanning beds has both positive and negative effects.
One of the obvious positive effects of using tanning beds is a nice tan. According to the Tanning Info Center website, UV rays from tanning beds helps the body to create Vitamin D. The lack of Vitamin D in the body can be linked directly to the cause of many diseases.
Many girls in high school use tanning as a way to relax from the daily stresses of school and extracurricular activities. Meghan Klunnenberg, a senior at North Tama high school, stated, "Tanning is relaxing."
A nice tan seems to give many teenage girls self-confidence and pride. However, tanning can also have negative effects.
When talking to one of the school nurses, Dee Benda, she said, "I think that using tanning beds is stupid because the UV rays are so harmful in tanning beds. People should go outside and get a natural tan instead of using a tanning bed."
Tanning beds are harmful because the UV rays damage your skin. According to the Mayo Clinic website, the damage caused by UV rays can lead to skin cancer and premature skin aging.
There are alternatives to tanning beds such as sunless tanners. There are many different types of sunless tanners, but they are most commonly found in the form of a lotion or spray. Sunless tanners usually include the active ingredient dihydroxyacetone.
Using tanning beds has both negative and positive effects. Tanning can be relaxing but it can also cause wrinkles and skin cancer.

Who doesn't love a big-screen bad girl?
On October 7th, Juno Temple hits the big screen as Danielle in Dirty Girl, a sassy teen growing up in Oklahoma and a self-proclaimed whore. Living up to her bad reputation, Danielle convinces another school outcast Clarke (Jeremy Dozier) to steal his father's car with which the two make a mad dash to Los Angeles so Clarke can escape the ridicule and she can find her father.
Most prefer to steer clear of firebrands like Danielle in real life, but on film they can be some of the most colorful people to spend time with. While Temple's character isn't nearly as ruthless and mean-spirited as some of these ladies, Dirty Girl is certainly an excellent excuse to look back at some awesome big-screen female baddies.

1:43 1964 Marcos 1800 RHD in Brochure Blue
- Limited edition of 499 pieces
- Item no. 43M011
When Jem Marsh and Frank Costin first combined their efforts—and their names—to produce an awkwardly styled but surprisingly effective little wooden monocoque sports car called the Marcos, few would have envisioned it evolving in just a few short years into the sleek machine you see replicated here. The Marcos 1800—so named for its use of the 'P1800' Volvo 1783cc inline-4 engine—looks nothing like its forbearer, but hidden beneath the low-slung fiberglass-reinforced plastic body lies the same style wooden monocoque chassis that underpinned the first Marcos.
The body made for tight confines within, but driver and passenger were treated a fair degree of luxury in its 45-degree-reclined seats. Triumph-sourced hood latches allow the entire forward section of the body to tilt, yielding access to the Volvo power plant, backed by a 4-speed gearbox with an MGB-sourced overdrive unit. The car's light weight, aero-friendly shape and 114hp made it good for 9-second sprints to 60mph—quite respectable for the day—and with the overdrive engaged could hit 115mph. The stiffly sprung independent suspension yielded impressive grip as well, giving the all-around performance to validate its attention-grabbing looks.
Automodello is proud to bring this gorgeous piece of independent sports car history to premium 1:43 scale.

Through my art, I endeavor to communicate the expressions of life and strike the imagination of the viewer. I enjoy rendering a wide variety of subject matter including landscapes, portraiture and still life and florals. Using mostly oils, colored pencil and graphite, I create art in the style of realism.
Many of my pieces were inspired by the summers I spent in the Finger Lakes and Thousand Islands Regions of New York State. Faith and imagination were the inspiration for the religious and holiday pieces. The works of two of my favorite master artists, Jan Vermeer and William Bouguereau, provided the inspiration for my two reproductions of their work. But usually I never know what may inspire me next - a beautiful butterfly, colorful sunset or a precious baby's face!
As a young girl, I realized I was artistic and loved to draw. After graduating from the University of Rochester, I enjoyed a career in human services while managing to keep my hand in art occasionally. Then, while staying home to raise my family, I was able to develop my artistic skills, studying under several regional artists. Subsequently, I participated in shows (solo and group), winning several awards and began self-publishing to make prints of my work available. Today, I enjoy being able to devote full time to my art career. When I'm not at my easel creating or doing a commission, I provide art classes called "Expressions of Life" at retirement facilities, libraries, daycare centers and a senior center in my area which is most enjoyable and rewarding.
I try to capture the beauty I see in my subjects, with each piece providing its own unique journey. It is my hope that my work brings a feeling of peace and enjoyment within the viewer.
Please stop back to see new pieces added to my gallery. Also, be sure to check the "What's New" page for recent art projects, news and pieces.

8 Steps to Filling Out the FAFSA Form
The easiest way to apply for TAP is through the FAFSA. Make sure you have completed your FAFSA!
New York State (NYS) residents attending NYS schools can link directly to the TAP application from the FAFSA submission confirmation page.
If you exited the FAFSA before completing the TAP application – and you filled in your New York State address and a New York State college on the FAFSA – HESC will automatically receive your information in about three days. HESC will then send you an email or postcard with directions to complete the TAP application online.
Received this notice from HESC? Apply now.
At the beginning of the online TAP application, you will be prompted to create a HESC-specific user name and personal identification number called a HescPIN. You will use your HescPIN when "signing" your TAP application and when accessing your HESC account information in the future.
The financial aid filing season officially began at 1 a.m. ET on Sunday, Oct. 1 with the launch of the 2018‒19 FAFSA® at fafsa.gov. Nearly 238,000 online applications were submitted the first day, representing an eight percent increase compared to one year ago.
Most students and parents are eligible to use the IRS DRT to electronically transfer their 2016 tax return information. The tool returned Oct. 1 for the 2018‒19 FAFSA with extra security and privacy protections to safeguard sensitive taxpayer data.
Each year, more than 20 million FAFSAs are submitted, resulting in more than $120 billion in federal grants, loans and work-study funds to help pay for college or career school.
"Our vision at the U.S. Department of Education (ED) is that every eligible student in the nation completes the FAFSA," said Dr. A. Wayne Johnson, chief operating officer of ED's office of Federal Student Aid. "Filling out the FAFSA is free, and Federal Student Aid provides a wealth of resources to assist students and parents every step of the way."
Students who plan to submit the FAFSA online should create an FSA ID as soon as possible at StudentAid.gov/fsaid. If a student is considered dependent for FAFSA purposes, one of the student's parents also needs to create an FSA ID in order to sign the FAFSA online. Each person must create his or her own FSA ID to avoid issues and delays with the financial aid process.
Once the FAFSA is processed, the school will use the FAFSA information to calculate the amounts and types of financial aid the student may qualify for, and the school will send the student a financial aid offer. Financial aid offers come from schools, not the U.S. Department of Education, and each school has its own schedule for awarding financial aid. Students are encouraged to complete the FAFSA as soon as possible to take advantage of any early state and school financial aid deadlines.
StudentAid.gov, Federal Student Aid's primary online portal for students and parents has information about completing the FAFSA, as well as frequently asked questions about the IRS DRT returning for the 2018-19 FAFSA.
Visit the FSA Data Center for information about the federal student aid portfolio, school data, lenders and guaranty agencies, and other business information.
To make a student loan payment or apply for an income-driven repayment plan, visit StudentLoans.gov.
Resources and information for financial aid professionals is available on the Information for Financial Aid Professionals (IFAP) online portal.
Resources and information for counselors, college access professionals, and mentors can be found on the Financial Aid Toolkit

Frequently Asked Questions About the 2017–18 FAFSA®
Starting with the 2017–18 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA®), the following changes have been put in place:
The following table provides a summary of key dates for the early FAFSA submission timeframe and reporting of earlier tax information.

If you'd like more details about the changes, you may read the fact sheet called College Students and Parents: What You Need to Know About the 2017–18 FAFSA®.
Browse these questions, and visit the FAFSA: Applying for Aid section of our site to learn more about the FAFSA process.
Are deadlines now earlier?
The federal deadline isn't earlier, but some state and school deadlines are. Most state and school deadlines haven't changed, but be aware of this: Several states' deadlines have changed from "as soon as possible after Jan. 1" to "as soon as possible after Oct. 1." Find state deadlines on the FAFSA and school deadlines on schools' websites.
Do I have to apply for admission to a school before I list it on my FAFSA?
No. On your FAFSA, list all the schools to which you have applied or might apply.
Will my 2016–17 FAFSA information be carried over onto the 2017–18 FAFSA?
If you choose the Renewal FAFSA option when you start your application at fafsa.gov, some basic information from your 2016–17 FAFSA will be prepopulated in your 2017–18 FAFSA. However, your tax and income information will not. (Too much could have changed in your life since you filled out the 2016–17 FAFSA.)
Can I choose to report 2016 information if my family's income has dropped significantly since we filed 2015 taxes?
No. You must report 2015 tax and income information, as the FAFSA requires. If your family's financial situation has changed dramatically since then, you should complete the FAFSA questions as required, submit the FAFSA, then contact the school you plan to attend and discuss your situation with thefinancial aid office.
Do I report my 2015 tax and income information on the 2017–18 FAFSA now, and then update it once I've filed my 2016 taxes?
No. Do not update after filing your taxes. The 2017–18 FAFSA asks for 2015 tax information.
What if my parents' (or my) marital status has changed since we filed 2015 taxes? How do we supply tax and income information on the FAFSA?
Here are some tips for this type of situation:
Will I receive aid offers from schools earlier if I apply earlier?
Not necessarily; some schools will make offers earlier, and others won't. And keep in mind that an early offer might be an estimated offer, so read communications from schools carefully.
