Not very happy!

I got really bad news from my school this last week. I guess that when I took on that extra class every week in order to qualify for my 25% off tuition scholarship, my academic advisor did not tell me that the extra class would not be covered in my predetermined student loan amount. So, now my school is saying that I owe $2.6k out of pocket and my registration for next terms' classes has been frozen. Great. So in other words, instead of being rewarded for my 4.0 GPA, now will most likely have to drop out of school because there is no way I can come up with $2,600.00 right now! The only other option I have left is to try and find another scholarship, which every single dang one I've found won't be paid out until at least September if I happen to be chosen as a recipient OR I can talk to the accounting department and see if they will work with me....

Talk to the accounting department! That would be horrible to have to drop out now. I hope everything goes well!

hopefully you will get help with it. they shouldn't be allowed to do that.

That sucks! They really should be upfront with you in the beginning and not spring things on you at the last minute. I hope you can get it worked out.
