<p>Was there anything in your original paperwork about what would happen if you withdrew from school? I’m not sure why they are charging you an additional $2000, when, if anything, they had to refund money to the government for gov. loan money that was disbursed to them, but then you did not use as the student. Did your parents help you when you signed the financial papers? Would they help you with the cost of a lawyer to look at this for you? Most people have great difficulty understanding all the legal and financial language in these documents. Has the fin. aid. person at the school been able to explain where this $2000 come in to play? You also did not end up using the full loans that you signed for, since you withdrew, so YOU need to ask for a full accounting of exactly how much of those loans was applied to the days you were in school, and how much had been disbursed that was not used and then should have 1) either been credited to you in a check for you to directly return, or 2) returned to the government directly from the school because you withdrew. I do know that with the “career institute” I worked for, if the student had completed 60% or more of the program, they were then responsible for the full cost, whether they stayed to complete the program or not. A lot of students were shocked when they would find that out. I hope you kept every piece of paper you received when you enrolled…</p>
