and certainly better than paying first term tuition at psu* with insurance from my stolen bicycle, because i didn’t get paid at the koin for nearly two months after starting…
but anyways. i just pulled out my financial aid notification, while on my way to figure out which classes i wanted to register for tomorrow. when it showed up the other day i looked at it long enough to see that they were offering me the same loan as last time* then set it aside for later reference. since then i’ve had this nagging feeling in the back of my head that it was actually for fall/winter/spring and not summer/fall/winter. because i wanted to start summer term and not fall, but i don’t have the money to go summer term without financial aid.
guess who’s not going back to school until september.
*yes, i could have graduated by now if i hadn’t dropped out three years ago. although, if i’d questioned my major in that time i could easily still be floundering around in the college system, accruing massive loan debt, and not be any closer to where i am now. re: smarter, more focused.
Hey, I didn’t know you were going back to school! Summer or Fall, I still think it’s awesome. Best of luck.
I’ll second that!
And this will give you some time to save some money over the summer.
My financial aid letter doesn’t have my summer stuff on it either. Supposedly I will receive a seperate notification for summer from the college itself… maybe that’s what they’re doing for you guys too?
hrrm… well, if i get a letter from pcc then i’ll see if there are any classes still open.
