Thread: Gotta a question for you guys!!! (Kinda legal)

Most school's will make you pay it back if you have to drop for any reason at all. That is what they told my husband when he just wanted to drop one class. They said he would have to pay it to drop it I don't think that it is fair but that is the way it is most of the time. I would ask to see the school handbook and look it up and see what it says for yourself. Did they give you the transcript? Most of them won't until you pay what it owed to them. So what I am saying is yes you will have to pay that and if you don't just let me warn you what they will do is take it out of your taxes somewhere down the road and then there is nothing that you can do about it Been there with my husband on another school that he went to.

The school had to send the loan money BACK to the lender because you flunked out? SO now the school is saying YOU owe them, right?

Yes, it's definitely legal, assuming that you had to leave your classes after the final withdrawal date (which I assume is the situation). I'm surprised that they made you leave classes entirely, though. Most schools let you fail the semester and then tell you not to come back. The promissory note that you signed when you took the loan states that if you withdraw from classes, your loan is also withdrawn (in essence--I don't remember the exact wording). In which case, you still owe the school if, of course, you withdraw after the last date to get a refund for classes.

I know I need to pay back any money I borrowed from my stafford, not a problem , that is my obligation, I know this, MY question is

Should I have to pay the School I was going to the tuition for Aug to March when I was ony there from August - December??

Yes! You dropped (involuntarily) after the time you could without a monetary penalty. You owe the school the entire tuition.

Unfortunately I would have to agree that you do owe the school the money for the entire semester-even if you had to drop the class for academic reasons. I would however try to talk with the Dean about not getting the help you asked for. He should be made aware of the problem with not getting the help you needed.

Total agreement, this loan is your responsibilty, no other person, and you can gripe, all you wish, and this isn't a FUN thing, but no matter what your terms were and the amount of said loan it will turn to you to repay it, and the poster who wrote, they can take your taxes, if some sort of re-payment is NOT in order, bet on that..so, I would make a fast fashion as tax time is just a few minutes away..they will file for thier money back..sorry..not great news here..and if you get your taxes back and nothing was done, and this get's MISSED the following year, they will "capture anything" you might have coming..

Hey Katt can you close this thread and then PM me. I have a question for you about this. I do not think my post is getting read right, you on the other hand are kinda there, so you have more of an insite. Because you were talking about the Average and that is what i am talking about.
