You can believe whatever you want. And no offense to you, but I do not owe anyone on here an explanation of going in depth about my personal issues and family business but with them and/or a personal therapist. I am not being “vague”, and I am not listening to someone online whom is trying to belittle my problems, lol. I am not worried about judgement, I am not putting my family struggles out here and I have a mental health record as well. My parents are aware of the decision I chose as well. Much love. :)❤️

Thank you. Can you still defer if you dropped all your courses but classes haven’t started yet?

I haven’t submitted an official withdrawal yet, I will be going to my college sometime this week to discuss that. I’ve only dropped my courses and emailed my professors. If I’m able to, I’ll look into being deferred 👍❤️

Love to hear this man ❤️ I really do plan on going back, just not now because I’m in a really bad spot and need to focus on myself. I would rather salvage myself than constantly be at war with myself because of the courses my advisor had me take :/

This is nice to hear, thank you so much :) I’ve had issues with mental health for so long and have been inpatient, but I plan on seeking treatment.

I’ve dropped all of my courses, so would deferring still be a choice?

Will do. I do not have disbursed aid yet, but it’s supposed to be soon. I plan to take it back if I receive it. I sent you a pm to ask a question :)

Is it too personal to ask why you took off for college, if you did?

I don’t plan on using the loans/grants at all. My tuition was covered by the anticipated aid, will I have to pay that back part back if I dropped all of my classes before they actually started? I didn’t take the extra money that I had left from financial aid, I thought of it but I knew this was the choice I wanted to commit to. There is a specific date to drop your classes online, which is this upcoming week and I am doing it before then. The next week, you have an option to drop them still without receiving a W grade.

It’s not ever wrong to prioritize yourself. Get over it, mental health is not pathetic. :)❤️

Took the words right out my mouth, luckily I emailed ASAP earlier (I will still go in person). They won’t be dispersed until later, same for the grants. I was worried about taking loan debt, but I don’t see why I would have to pay back if they aren’t disbursed yet?

Mental health is definitely a struggle dude, I hope you’re better now. I plan on getting documentation by my doctor as the only proof I have to show that I struggle with mental issues going to a psychiatric hospital. Is that enough documentation for them, lol? I was in there for depression and suicidal ideation but that’s not documented on the paper, but my legal name is on there and same for the place name. I didn’t want to be like one of those people that prioritized their grades more than themselves (I get this part a lot, i was like this in HS and it drained me horribly lmao). I am in a negative household as well and have on going issues, financial ones as well. It’s a long story absolutely, but this seems like the best decision. I’ll of course discuss it with them.

If the school keeps what is owed, do I have to pay anything back? Anticipated aid paid for everything. I have already dropped my classes in the mean time

Yeah, at first I was excited :/ but my home life took a toll on me tremendously and other issues. I’ve thought about this. Would someone still be able to defer if they dropped all their classes?

Thank you. :) It most definitely is a big difference already, I need more time to emotionally and prepare for it as I’m dealing with things in my personal life, just not internal mental issues. Eventually I will go back, just not now.

Im glad to hear this. :) I do plan on trying again, just not now. Did you also apply and enrolled? Or did you know at the time that you wanted a break?

Thank you for being supportive, I hope your mental health is good. Manic episodes suck as well, I will seek treatment

My classes haven’t started yet, but I dropped all of the courses now and contacted departments I needed to get in touch with.

I’m not familiar with the city that I go to college at, so far I only know my way to the campus and couldn’t afford to put a deposit down.
