Financial aid
Never in my wildest dreams would I have thought I would consider such a thing in my life for more than one thing. Through the grapevine over a year ago I heard there was assistance from the state to cover daycare fees. I of course jumped on this because as a single mom with a car to pay off, and plenty of debt piling up just from cost of living, I could use any help possible. Well, I was denied – I make too much money. Amazing because I was and still am just barely getting by. I am again applying for assistance, but now for school. I have had such a run around and am still going in circles with my school about getting approval for financial aid. I’m either going to finish the 8 or 9 classes I have left to obtain a bachelors in business administration, or everything I have worked for to this point is going to mean nothing. I say that but my parents will ultimately end up suffering the bill because they don’t want me to give up, no matter what the circumstances. Please tell me how the government is so quick to hand out shit to so many but here I am, obviously in need of some assistance and I don’t know how much more I can spell it out. I understand there are so many processes in place to try and sift out the ones that abuse the system but I’ll bet 90% of the people that get help are abusing the system one way or another!! Someone please just throw me a bone. Cut me a break. Something.
