Remember this post?

Evidently, the college gave me bad information on my scholarship. They implied throughout the application and acceptance process that I was getting a scholarship. Now they tell me that the entire scholarship was just the $500 for books, and that the rest is a loan. So no, I don't get instate tuition, I just get a loan. And because this is a loan, not a scholarship, I can't get any more aid from the school, and now my only option is to get a private loan.

I really wish that they had given me this information when they sent me the acceptance letter, but they DIDN'T, so now I'll be taking two loans out for school.

I'm so frustrated with the school right now. They didn't give me a scholarship like I thought they did, and I can't get any work study.

Just. Auuuuugh.

Scratch that, first person I talked to had no idea how the scholarship worked. I AM getting part of my tuition waved, but they also just randomly gave me a loan.

Thank god that I refused to accept that that was the way things were going down and called the aid office again demanding to know what was up with that scholarship.
