So I attended TCC and in the middle of the semester I had to drop all my classes and drop out, due to the numerous things that happened in my personal life. It got to where I couldn’t go to school anymore… well needless to say, it was so late within the semester, I had to drop those classes and now I owe $550. I plan on going back, but my question is, can I apply for Fasfa and use my Fasfa to pay my debt? Or would I need to get a payment arrangment set up… if they allow, then try that? What are my next steps… I’m in this completely alone. My mom doesn’t help when it comes to school.
Well if you don’t pay the debt owed they won’t let you register for classes most likely.
I’m not sure about FAFSA, I would ask the school and definitely ask them to work out a repayment plan with you.
Did you have a medical reason for the withdrawal, do you have documentation for it? Maybe you could see if a medical withdrawal could be granted retroactively.
