Hi everyone,
I’m new to CC, have lurked for years. I’m really desperate for help and in need of guidance.
I attended a US Service Academy for a little over 2 years, went straight from highschool, and left after an assault this spring.
I went home to (state) and started taking courses mid semester. Truth be told I wasn’t ready for classes as I wasn’t even home yet when they began, and failed all but one, in which I got a C.
In September I moved to (state) and tried to start school again online there, I lost the support of my parent after leaving SA so I began working 72+ hours weekly in order to survive living out of car. I’m at the end of semester and will maybe pass 1 course. I just recently got accepted to state university here, and I’m worried about financial aid implications for next semester. I reported to them I was taking courses at community college, but it never showed up on my financial aid forms, and I was qualified for aid next semester.
I’m afraid after transferring schools in January that my aid will be pulled. I am a good student, I was all AP/IB in HS, got into multiple SA, had good grades there, just wasn’t ready to return to school after what happened. I am now, but I’m deadly worried that my community college grades are going to hurt me deeply. I’m even more afraid that when I report the grades to the new university they will rescind my acceptance or aid…which I don’t have money to pay for tuition.
What can I do? I appreciate the help.
