Getting out of housing contract

<p>so here's my dilemma..im a second and frankly im just over the whole campus life scene and would rather live off campus. so i went through the whole appeal **** and now am waiting to hear back from them. what i told them was i could no longer afford housing...but with my financial aid offer...if i accept loans it would be enough to cover housing. except i dont want to accept loans and thats what i told them. do u guys think i did the right thing telling them the truth, that i would rather spend all the $$ im spending on dorm on something else, or should i have lied liek everyone else and said i have asthma from being in such a room or something?</p>
