Can you say SCREWED?
but not in the good way.
I normally take three quarters a year. Well this past year I took five. The usual Spring, Fall and Winter, but also the summer and an off-campus course (which counts as a quarter). WEll my financial aid only covers three quarters. So my off-campus course I had to pay for out of pocket. Well that cost me a bundle. I have one more quarter, though, in this school year. And guess what? Yup, I don't have any aid. I am so fucking screwed and I'm pissed. They don't mention that if you take the other quarters that they move up your aid and that you are screwed if you want to take more than three quarters in a year. So I sent my advisor a LOVELY email. THe next person I am emailing is the president. Because I will NOT sit out a quarter because the school denies me my additional loan for the Spring quarter. I so I don't feel good about this. I so feel like I'm not going to win this one........
I don't have the money to pay for this. I do not qualify for scholarships. I have to rely on the good old bank. I'm not happy about it, but it's something I chose to do. I only have a year to go. Now I haven't filled out my aid for the 2007-2008 year, but Spring 2007 doesn't fall in that category. So this school better find a way for me to take my spring classes and get a loan for that. Or they will feel my fury........
