Former “Fuller House” actress Lori Loughlin and her husband Mossimo Giannulli are each set to begin their respective prison sentences for their roles in the college admissions scandal on November 19. With less than a month to go before then, sources are saying that Loughlin is “mentally preparing” herself to be incarcerated right now.

“She’s mentally preparing for this. She wants to go in, do her time, and get out,” a source close to Loughlin told People Magazine. “She wants it to be as uneventful as possible, and she wants this to be a distant memory by 2021.”

The source added that as her prison sentence nears, Loughlin is determined to face it with resolve.

“She is going to set her jaw and do her time,” the insider said. “Of course she’s dreading it, but she’s resigned that it’s the way to get this behind her. She’s already thinking about how 2021 will be better for her, and she’ll be able to move forward.”

“There’s some humility there that people didn’t see before,” the source continued. “She’s going to learn what she can from the experience, and hopefully become an even better person from this. She’s open to learn the lessons that she needs to learn.”

Loughlin and Giannulli pled guilty back in May to charges related to them paying $500,000 in bribe money to have their two daughters admitted to the University of Southern California as members of the crew team, even though neither girl had ever rowed before. A judge later approved their plea deals and sentenced Loughlin to two months in jail, a $150,000 fine and 150 hours of community service. Meanwhile, fashion designer Giannulli was given five months in jail, a $250,000 fine and 250 hours of community service.

Loughlin released a brief statement at the time of her sentencing.

“I made an awful decision,” she told the judge. “I went along with a plan to give my daughters an unfair advantage in the college admissions process. In doing so, I ignored my intuition and allowed myself to be swayed from my moral compass.”

“I thought I was acting out of love for my children, but in reality it only undermined and diminished my daughters’ abilities and accomplishments,” Loughlin added.
