The whole thing about YSU holding are money is the most ridiculous, retarded thing in the world. Do they ASSUME that EVERYONE is a freshman? Do they not realize that some of us actually have a life outside of SCHOOL? I am entitled to my loans. I have to pay TWO other schools which WILL be starting on time. I have to get books for the TWO other schools that WILL be starting on time. I have to pay rent on September 1st which DOES NOT give a rat's ass about YSU's issues with a contract. I also work, go to school full-time and take care of my son. This is outright THEFT by YSU as far as I am concerned and I am seriously considering a different school at this point. If this ruins my credit, I am looking for a lawyer. I just hope I am not out on the street first. Unbelievable.
This BETTER get resolved and FAST. People's lives DEPEND on that money. They can't keep it hostage until they figure out stupid issues with a petty contract. Get another job like the rest of us if it's so bad.
I'm sorry, William, but saying No Attend = No Money is crap. I am only taking TWO classes through YSU. Three of my other classes are through TWO other schools. I've signed a consortium agreement to say that all my financial aid would go through YSU. Now I am screwed for three schools because YSU is holding up ALL of it. That's crap. That is MY money to LIVE on. Come Sept 1st, I highly doubt my apartment complex will give a hoot if YSU faculty has come to an agreement or not. And YSU not informing us until today is beyond ridiculous. I have a son to support. I'm not just some 18-year-old freshman who can fall back on mommy. They are seriously screwing with peoples' lives at this point.
Aid, scholarship delays fluster YSU students
Sorry, that should have read *OUR* money. I'm so angry I can't even use correct grammar. UGH.
