<p>The decisions will be out in a couple of weeks and my parents are getting a divorce. I can barely believe the situation I’m in at the moment is real. It just can’t sink in. It’s perfect timing. I’m about to go off to study and be happy and I get this! I don’t mean to be…well, mean. I mean I just can’t think about morality and ethics when my dad decides to run off to some other family, or woman or whatever NOW. I’m speechless. I don’t want to dwell on the whole situation now cause it’s all I’ve been thinking about for the last week and I’m shattered and sick of it I’m not sure what to do. The question is, do I report this right away, or do I wait till March 31 to get all FA decisions and then make a plea to the FA office…? I’m just so worried and ****ed and angry and I really don’t know what do!!</p>
<p>Maybe I should have posted this in FA section, and the chances are slim that any of you might have a similar situation (in fact I sincerely hope nobody does, cause even being as cynical as I am I can’t possibly wish such a fate to anybody), but I really need some opinions.
Thanks.
Oh and sorry for the personal stuff.</p>
<p>Hey man thats really bad. I think you should definitely inform the Financial Aid Offices of the universities you applied to as soon as possible because the earlier you inform them the more chances you have of getting some consideration and additional aid. I hope this helps and that this dilemma sorts itself out.</p>
<p>If you would like more responses I’d suggest you repost it in the Financial Aid forum with the heading “Parents Just Announced Divorce, What to Do?”</p>
<p>very unfortunate, Iuileb…my best wishes…i suggest you contact the FA offices of all the schools you have applied to as soon as possible, not only by e-mail; you could call them up and explain the situation…also, on a personal note, do not get frustrated(i know it’s easier to say)…i am sure there is a silver lining for you behind this monstrous dark cloud…all the best…</p>
