<p>I feel like I am being punished for being too close to graduation. I am in a 2 year college and i only need 3 classes to graduate... but I can only take one at a time, and financial aid anf VA benefits will pay very little.. there are some classes I can take to fix it, but why..........</p>
<p>I am at an out of state college and living on campus, would it be better to not complete the AA transfer degree, go back home where i can live with my family, and simply transfer to my state uni ? (the state uni only looks at my credits, they do not care if I have an AA. I have 138 credits)</p>
<p>I don’t understand what you’re saying.</p>
<p>You only need three courses to graduate but can only take one at a time. Why? </p>
<p>“There are some classes I can take to fix it, but why …” – to fix what? You mean you can take other classes instead of the three you need to graduate? I don’t understand.</p>
<p>As far as your second paragraph, without better understanding your situation as (vaguely) described in the first paragraph, I don’t think any of us can advise you.</p>
<p>I am sorry for not explaining it fully.</p>
<p>To graduate, I only need Geology 101, 102, 103… it’s a sequence (101 is only offered fall quarter, 102 Winter quarter, 103 Spring quarter.) Each class is worth four credits. Therefore, financial aid (grants) will only pay for 4 credits per quarter, which is not enough. I am not eligible for work study or loans either.</p>
<p>The problem is that I want to live in student housing with a meal plan. I have no family in this town. The cost of living in housing will be more than I can get. </p>
<p>There is a reason why I should stay here, and it is: I don’t have to pay tuition. I am an editor for the school literary publication. So all I am worried about is books, fees and housing.</p>
<p>Apparently the college has a list of classes that are designed for students with this problem. Most of these “filler” clases are human development. I already registered for two of those classes, and I will see on Monday if it is a solution.</p>
<p>When I wrote that post, I was upset and I was thinking of going back to my home town, where I can live with family, and finish those goelogy classes there.</p>
