  • Problems with college

    Well I started Suffolk College in the fall.Got a letter today that said my financial aid has been taken away because I did not complete an algebra class and did not achieve 12 credits or over.Man I almost had a heart attack.I called up the financial aid office and they said I can have a second chance and disragard the letter I got.Holy crap...What a load off my shoulders.I thought I was screwed for sure.Just thought I'd share...

    Ha, been there done that. Almost had my full tuition scholarship revoked because of a ceramics class that I was taking for fun. I missed my GPA requirement by .08 (I had a 3.52). It's not funny when you make the Deans List and National Honor Society (Phi Eta Sigma) then they tell you you lost your scholarship. Needless to say I gave the Firebird some hell that night. I called the school up the next day and they just put me on probabation. I don't care though, I'm transfering out after next quarter. I really hate college.

        That's college for you... just make sure you get something in writting soon, it's easy for things not to get done at the office. Ex: A lady means to change your status, but goes to lunch, then forgets... you're screwed.

        ... maybe that's just my college.

          Yeah I took that into consideration.Before I even called I went on the college website and check my financial aid status.Everything seemed ok.My financial aid was still there and I did not owe any money for the spring semester.I called up just to kind of confirm because maybe my account on the site had not been updated.She said the money block was taken off.

                  My financial aid (parents) has been taken away. I did very bad last quarter, which was b/c about 1/4 of the way through i decided to change majors, 1/2 through i decided i wasnt gonna finish school and stoped trying, 3/4 the way through i decided i would finish but it was already too late to save my grades. :( i managed to not fail any classes but only recieved a 1.0 .

                  so now i'm paying for school, it sucks but no one to blame but myself. :\

                    Yeah, I had a little problem too..

                    Went to the cash office to pick up my FREE book money and my FREE housing money and wound up with 200 dollars more than the 2000 dollars I thought I was getting.

                    Problems, problems... :D
