    school loan advice needed ASAP

    i just got semi screwed over by my coach and kennesaw state university as a whole .
    there are fees that weren't applied to my account for my scholarship and they are going to drop my classes by friday if i don't pay 1,200 bucks .
    my parents don't have it , i sure as hell don't either . . . and i just need to pay it off until i can get this iddish straightened out with the university .


    . . . does anyone have any suggestions to where i could get that kind of money in 2 days ? legal or not ? ( jk , but foreal . . . )

    Go to your school's financial aid office right away. They'll be able to straighten the situation out.

      they gave me the option of paying half now , and the rest 45 days later . isue is , that 1200 is the half i need . i'm just not sure where else i can get that kind of money quickly ( even if the apr is stupid . )

              How necessary is your car? Probably don't want to think about it... but college > car.

                  This is a tough dilemma. I too had too had to face this during my college years. I sold my car and took up a full-time job aftwards to purchase another car. But in all seriousness, try a credit union for a loan. Sorry that you are going thru this. I can totally sympathize with you. Good luck!

                        i even bought my books already so this is kinda *** .



                        if i'm not enrolled i can't practice , train , or compete with my teammates
                        most importantly I WON'T BE IN SCHOOL .
                        man , i'm trying not to panic but i'm beginning to think imma be outta school . . .

                        any ideas though guys ? i'm just about out .
                        the only upside to this is i could work + train + study on my own until january

                          Do you have a credit card with that much available on it? You can take a cash advance. The APR is obscene, so you won't want to sit with that balance on the card... pay it off ASAP... but that's one way to do it. I've thankfully never had to do that myself, but it's always an option I keep in mind if I'm REALLY screwed for money, and I know it's a temporary situation.

                          Or just pay it on the card. I paid for my Associate's degree on my credit card, then worked my balls off every summer to pay it off.

                              If you have other options available, I would steer clear of taking time off. Many friends of mine have done this, and weren't able to get enough money saved up to return to school.

                              If you decide to take a break, however, be sure that your school will apply your scholarship(s) again when you return. Some schools do not reapply scholarships when students take a leave of absence.
