Hi ,
I am a high school graduate and i haven’t started college yet. i got accepted to a college, paid the enrollment deposit but i haven’t paid my tuition yet. My orientation hasn’t started yet either.
My tuition is due really soon and I don’t think I can afford it so i was thinking of dropping out of the college before i go to the orientation and before i pick classes and apply to a new college that i can afford.
I was wondering that when I drop out of the college will it affect anything ? Like the financial aid or something? I heard that if i drop out i have to pay some fees? I’m not really sure what would happen.
Normally all that happens is you lose your enrollment deposit.
Call the college and ask.

Usually just losing the deposit but call. You can reset and see what more affordable alternatives there are.
You are not “dropping out” you are cancelling your enrollment.
Be sure to communicate with the college about this, and verify that everything does get cancelled so that you do not generate any bills.
