Hey Folks,
Just kinda have to vent here. I just received an MBA on 10/20/07. When finished, my student loan was requested to be paid less than 2 weeks after I finished. Not a big deal, but I thought I had 6 month.. not a problem.
Now, here's where the fun begins. I received a call from school collecitons that I owe them $6,000 that needs to be paid NOW or I will not get my diploma or transcript. I called the school and they admitted the reason for the balance was that they switched computer systems and did not know I owed it. Had they known, i would have filled out another financial aid paper and called it a day. The big problem is, because I am no longer a student, they can not add it to my loan. So now i need to fork over $6,000 ASAP AND pay $400 a month for the student loan. Aside from the school saying "I'm so sorry this happened to you", I can't imagine how to fix this unless I pay it off...somehow... someway....
They did give me a few options:
1) Ask my employer to pay
2) take a personal loan
3) use my credit card
No good!! I hope my poor Titan doe snot end up on B/S/T becasue of this but... the lil' fella may be about a 8% fix to my problems and an option. Ya, I have some savings and will have to tap that but... My quest to purchase a home is now delayed about a year and a half...
Just had to vent about this!! i really feel taken advantage of!!!
If you see me selling organs online.. You'll know I get to keep da' Titan :lolsign:
