I don't qualify for jackshit from FASFA except loans

Elphenor 05-25-2017 04:19 PM

Seriously I'm so upset I'm trapped, I can't afford to live on my own, there's no place that will hire me above $10 an hour, it's gonna take me 4 years to get a 2 year degree on debt

You can try to make a case to them to get the in county rate (especially if the other school doesn't offer your study of choice).If not, unfortunately you'll have to go to your county's college.

How old are you? When you're not dependent on your parents you can qualify for help. I just got some this year, otherwise I was paying for a class at a time. It's been way too many years and I'm in the same boat. I know that isn't encouraging... but this is reality for a lot of people, so you won't be alone in this boat. Mike just got under 30k on his loan. But it will be ok.

ohnoitsbonnie 05-25-2017 05:08 PM

$700 a class is my in county rate also 😱

ohnoitsbonnie 05-25-2017 05:11 PM

I'm not trying to make it seem like those problems are trivial. School sucks and is unfair. When classes are as well as othe policies favor those that have more time and money than those that have to work to live. I know the pain. Do what you can and roll with the punches. It makes it easier and there isn't much other choice.

Elphenor 05-25-2017 05:14 PM

We don't have a county college I live so fucking far from everything

I need to move into the city but how? Nobody will hire me I have no skills

Trying to go to school to get skills

Not saying I don't appreciate the advise just venting

Elphenor 05-25-2017 05:18 PM

If I move out I don't make enough money to pay tuition AND I still don't qualify for aid until I'm 24!

ohnoitsbonnie 05-25-2017 05:20 PM

Make that argument to them then to get the in county rate. That's a very good argument. It's worth a try at least right?

In-county tuition is bullshit. I thought there was only in and out of state

FlamingGlobes 05-25-2017 05:26 PM

Elphenor,

Lately I've discovered that there is a Third Eye Blind song for every occasion. This is the Third Eye Blind song for your occasion. I hope you enjoy.

Kindest regards,

Phlaming Globs


FlamingGlobes 05-25-2017 05:27 PM

Guys,

I've decided to shift my schtick from "guy who posts too many gifs" to "guy who embeds Third Eye Blind videos everywhere." I hope you enjoy.

Yours,

Glaming Fobs

I thought this was a standard part of county colleges

Elphenor 05-25-2017 05:34 PM

No their logic is that my family doesn't pay property taxes in their county which is what goes towards the reduced tuition

I had to jump through so many hoops just to prove to the state that I'm a resident (Texas is really particular about this) and I thought I finally had it sorted out and they basically turned me away at the gates of higher education

ohnoitsbonnie 05-25-2017 05:34 PM

Did you really hear that?

reprise85 05-25-2017 05:36 PM

Yeah both in orientation and then today when I find out I'm like on the other side of a city that's half part of the county

ohnoitsbonnie 05-25-2017 05:50 PM

So what are those out of county people supposed to do?

The fees are where they get ya but Broward County is surprisingly affordable wow

ohnoitsbonnie 05-25-2017 06:00 PM

I'm not in finance so I can't tell what's a better option for you, elph. That it is you can pay the out of county rate while you live with your parents (while not paying rent), or take out loans and get through cc quickly and then move on to real college if you feel like that's right for you (where you will surely need to take out loans), or you can work and pay off each class and while it may be slow, it is progress.
