              Answered
              I signed up for school and started in approximately early April 2023. I was under the impression that I would be going to school full time, as I was never told anything else by the school. They asked me to send a notarized form back to them which I did two or three times. They allowed me to go to school till September where they cut me out of my classes because of my nonpayment of tuition. I received a computer and an extra 500 dollars from them. They say that this is because I picked up an extra class but I was told by an instructor I would lose my Federal Finacial Aid if I didn't. They put me into collections (*****) from the school (Not including my FFSA) and dropped me out of my classes. I went from a 4.0 to a 2.9 in just a few weeks as I was unable to access my classes. I never signed a repayment letter, and this was almost seven months into my program. May to late September early October.
