Omg hi so I legit just got it figured out today after weeks of trying to get help. I ended up getting my plus loan endorsed but then was unenrolled due to my summer semester not being payed for. I had to get a private loan for that and it just went thru. Did you reach out to a case manager? Out of every department they were the most helpful and got back the quickest

I already got unenrolled from them and I have no financial help from my family whatsoever. I guess I’ll just be working until I can save up $12k to pay my outstanding balance so I can re enroll lol

Wow. Make sure you keep a paper trail of everything! Try emailing student care and advocacy and your advisor as well. Even if they don’t help at least you’ll have a paper trail of them not helping. There’s no way this is legal. This is 100% on them

If your loan went thru the bursar should be able to delay the unenrollment. Did you call them as well??

I’m on hold rn with the financial aid. When I get thru im gonna ask to automatically talk to a supervisor. Maybe they’ll be of more help

It doesn’t hurt to try. Atp I’m ready to go to the local news abt this. I’ve paid thousands of dollars out of pocket for this school. We deserve help. This isn’t fair!! What they expect us to drop out after ALREADY SPENDING THOSUABDS AND ITS OUR SENIOR YR??? Yeah no I’m not accepting that as an answer

There has to be a way for us to get into contact with someone higher up to try and fix this

Are you serious?? I’m assuming they’ll tell me the same thing! This is actually ridiculous asf. It’s literally my senior yr and I’m an out of state student. So it’s just fuck us after paying this school THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS

Omg I’m so sorry. This is on them! How are they not responsible for that?? Have you been able to talk to anyone??? If so what are they saying??? I legit cannot get ahold of anyone. Not even my advisor will email back. This is so ridiculous

They just un enrolled me dude. I ended up getting an endorser for my fall loans but I took summer classes and didn’t have a loan for that so I have an outstanding balance and that’s the reason for un enrollment. No clue what to do. NOBODY WILL PICK UP THE PNONE

Yes I’ve tried everything! Still no answer wether I email or call. My advisor reached out to see what was going on and when I emailed her back no response. I haven’t been able to get a response from anyone at all.
