Stupid Financial Aid
I got an email today from FAFSA today. I was so excited because I’m expected to get $5,300 for one semester. I applied for classes too late to get a good schedule. But I got a schedule. And I started paying for it too. Well the total before books is $850. Now I have to pay that plus books which will probably be like $500. So that’s $1,350 and the financial aid was going to cover that. I was even going to have extra. My parents can’t afford that on their own. And since I applied for financial aid kinda late, I was going to have to pay for it out of pocket and then get the money back from financial aid later. My parents said it was fine so I went ahead and signed up for a payment plan. Well now it turns out that I won’t be getting the money and I’m signed up for class. So what do I do? My parents say they can afford it but I know they can’t. Ugh!!! This is the worst thing that could happen. I really wish I would have just forgot about school and moved on with my life. I hate this. Ugh! Well I’m going to go now. Just wanted to let you guys know what’s up. Bye.
