Well I guess I’m not re-entering university, at least physically. I’ve been denied financial aid due to the amount of classes I’d failed before (due to a simester withdrawl.)
I can’t afford to bank roll college out of pocket, neither can my family. Furthermore, the largest academic loan I can take out in my situatio is $4000, which in the world of college is practically nothing.
My Aunt has suggested enrolling in online classes to try and bring my hours completed up and receive financial aid, but online classes bring communication and accessability difficulties.
I just don’t see a path forward in all this bullshit, I really on’t. I was this fucking close… this fucking close! Tomorrow was the move-in day, but now it’s slipped from my grasp; my past self once again fucking over my current self. I’m losing my mind, I’m actually losing it.

Good, thanks.
works.
Okay this is a test.
That will be good.
Thanks y’all for the support. Like I said, my mother and aunt will be assisting me with this simester’s worth of payments. Once I get my completed hours to 67% or above I should be able to get federal student aid. I just signed up for a payment plan, the first installment was last month and I missed that, so I set the down payment (not required) to the amount of the first payment. Eithr I did what I was supposed to, or I’m bout to get charged another $2000ish tomorrow. I guess we’ll see. Better to pay it off too early than get the debt collectors up my ass about everything. Gettin’ on the road tomorrow at 6:00 AM EDT. (move-in for my group is from 8:00 AM-10:00 AM EDT, so that’ll give us time to drive up and get something to eat for breakfast.
I agree with you@Patricus.
me too. Xander.
also, don’t back down! don’t let em win!
Me too.
I wish you all the best of luck, xander.
@Zlunglrg, I also feel bad for you too. Just remember, if there is anything one of you want to talk to me or anyone on this group about on a pm, feel free to do so. You should know that I don’t like it when my friends are hurt inside. But I don’t mind you telling me how you feel. And that’s me being honest.
god damn, I feal so bad for you, and honestly I have been in similar situations, for instance, insurence wasn’t insureing my meds, so my indipendent living school wouldn’t let me atend until I brought them the meds, and on another note, I am so stressed about everything that I am sick to my stomach, I can’t tell yall how many times I’v had to go to the bathroom
Dang! That would be alot of money.
yEAH IT WOULD, BECAUSE i’D BE OUT ABOUT $10,000 usd. cOLLEGE IS PRICY, AND THAT’S BEFORE TEXTBOOKS AND BULLSHIT LIKE THAT.
Well, I hope they accept it, that would suck big time if they didn’t.
Update: I’ve submitted an appeal form, whether they’ll accept it or not is a different story. Two family members have also said that they’ll assist in payment. I’ve come too far to back down.
Dang it! Xander, I feel so bad for you. I’m not jokeing. Just remember, you have friends like me, Brandon, Mat, and everyone else on this blog and my blog who can help you. We are here for you every step of the way. Never forget that. I hope I did a good job of saying that. Just remember, if there is anything you want to talk to one of us in a pm, feel free to do so. I feel sorry for you to be honest.
