Well, Sallie Mae got all the needed info remaining from my dad...then denied him. So, what, this makes four possibilities down the tube? I'm really interested to see why Sallie Mae denied him...however, because this centers around HIS financial info, they won't tell me jack shit. They'll send a letter to him, and I'll find out why.
It's to the point where I'm no longer feeling bitter anger and extreme annoyance at financial institutions. Rather, I'm feeling somewhat numb, saddened, and annoyed. I can't help but shake the feeling that somehow, financial institutions seem to be out to make it difficult for me at every juncture. So now, two months into the school year, I'm back where I started, a $4000+ bill still looming over my head. Can't register for classes until I pay it, then I'll get hit with another bill for the same. As it stands, if I don't register for classes by the end of November, I won't be able to register again until January 18, to which I get thrown another $75 late registration fee.
This just keeps getting better and better. So, I emailed my aunt to let her know, and have asked her if there's anyone in the family left. I'm running out of options and time. And you know, the irony of the situation is this: according to the financial aid office and Salle Mae, this is one of the easiest loans to get, with over 80% of applicants who apply with a co-signer being approved. I guess I'm just an unlucky bastard.
But, eh, whatever. Life goes on. I'll brood over it for some time, then see where I can go from here. But all these setbacks, denials, and other shit that seems to keep happening to me is starting to really make me reconsider my decision to go to college...as I mentioned before, if I knew that college would do this, I wouldn't have gone.
So once again, I need a credit-worthy co-signer...yeesh. Every advance always gets shot down.
Whatever.
