I owe tuition and can't attend graduate school until it is paid off.

Paying for College
1

<p>I spent my very last semester taking one class so I didn't qualify for financial aid since it was only one class. I finished that class and I got offered a TA position at another university spring 2015 but I unless I pay off my class my school won't release my transcript or give me my diploma.</p>

<p>That’s right. You owe them money. Pay your bills and you will get your transcript and your diploma. </p>

<p>Do you think they should issue these to you with an outstanding balance? Did you think you would NOT have to pay to take that course?</p>

3

<p>Of course not I’m not trying to get out of it I’m just trying to find a way to pay it off as quickly as possible.</p>

4

<p>If anyone has any useful suggestions on grants/loans that I could look into, that would be great.</p>

<p>I would think you can get a personal loan at a bank, with a cosigner. It is unlikely that you will get any grant money for a term that has ended. Grants are usually given prior to the term starting.</p>

<p>Becsuse you were taking only one course, which is far less than half time, I don’t think you are eligible for any federally funded loan money.</p>

<p>Which term are you short on…spring of last year…or fall this year?</p>

6

<p>How much do you need? Can you ask your family to give you some/all of it for Christmas or whatever holiday you celebrate?</p>

7

<p>fall this year. I tried a bank but my cosigner won’t be able to help until maybe january and there’s still a possibility that their credit won’t be enough. I got into a rush because I received a message a couple of weeks ago about the TA position this spring. I started saving money but this semester has been rough on myself, as well as others financially.</p>

8

<p>I need $2300. I accumulated so many credit hours they charged me out-of-state tuition.</p>

9

<p>Sit down with the people at the bursar’s office, and find out what you would need to do to set up a payment plan. They may be willing to do that knowing that you have a job waiting for you elsewhere.</p>

10

<p>Set up a payment plan. You have to pay it off before proceeding. </p>

<br>

<p>??</p>

<p>Are you instate? If so, see if you can appeal THAT!</p>

12

<p>Did you receive instate tuition as part of a merit aid financial aid package…as long as you were attending full time? This could be the problem, if you are OOS.</p>

13

<p>Ask that grad school if you can start in August…and then work and pay off that debt.</p>

<p>If you were to get a private loan, how would that get paid off?</p>

<p>You “need” $2300…how much did you pay at the beginning of the semester? Nothing? </p>
