Plus to further complicate the loan issue, this student put down the father’s drivers license number where the loan application asked for it since the student does not have a driver’s license. I am wondering if that could lead to the student’s loan application being denied?
Although I love my first generation students, more times than not it is complicated since many do not know how to fill out applications and do not know how to follow-up on things. I can’t begin to tell you how many times I have had to “unwind” something a student did or yell at them for ignoring verification emails from their colleges.
