I contacted the director of Financial aid at my school to explain my family situation. She sent me an email today, and I have received the last of the money I owe in the form of a Perkins loan and a grant from the school! I'M SO HAPPY!

It is!!! I was so shocked!

It's funny though, last night before I went to bed, I prayed for a cosigner for a student loan, and then I woke up checked my email, and was told to check my bluenet account, and I was so surprised! I woke up my mom! I'm so happy i contacted the financial aid office!!!

It is so nice to hear a positive side of financial aid. I teach in a community college and financial aid is a great source of anger for many students.
