<p>I’m just curious–if you can be so organized about this plan for the next 4–6 years, and dedicated to sacrificing and saving to make it happen, how come you couldn’t motivate yourself merely to attend classes for one semester? Tough lesson, but financial aid is an investment in students who also invest themselves. Go and have other adventures–if you like them, continue, if not, you will not miss any classes next time.</p>
