<p>Sorry, but I can’t imagine any rational reason why the OP should have a chip on his shoulder. He’s getting a tremendous amount of money to have access to a highly reputable 4 year college as he stated he’s getting practically a free ride if his financial aid application is/was correct. He’s jumping right over the option to go to a community college and transfer exactly because of the way the current financial aid system is and yet he’s feeling that he is being unfairly treated because they are verifying his information.</p>
