I decided to finally go back and finish my degree. I debated it and debated it and finally decided I was just coming up with excuses. I filled out all the forms and did FAFSA. Well now I'm told that I have to submit at least 1/4 of my tuition by Friday. I found out last night thanks to an automated call. My financial aid stuff still hasn't been reviewed. I applied for financial aid because as a single parent I can't afford the tuition...even at DMACC. If I don't pay by Friday then I will be dropped from my class. I only signed up for one because I wanted to ease into it and its offered online. The class is full so if I get dropped then I can't re-add and will have to wait until Spring. I know it doesn't seem that big because I could wait until Spring but I really wanted to start now. Then there is the "what if I don't get financial aid"? Like I said, there is no way I can afford tuition and books on my own. So now I'm in a mood. I am on my second Diet Coke and its not helping any!! Any suggestions of what to do????
Vent over!! If anyone would like to join my pity party of one I would love to have you! My grandma is making Harli and I dinner tonight so that will lift my mood some. Watch out Peanut Butter M&Ms, you will be devoured for dessert!!
