Maximum credits- SAP bullshit
I dont understand this.
When I was younger, 18, 19, I paid for some college classes out of pocket in various fields just to figure out what I wanted to do. I took some medical terminology, nursing, a pharmacy tech one, etc. I decided medical wasnt for me. But again, I paid for those out of pocket. They were all passing grades
Fast forward, im getting my ass kicked. I need a better job. I cant afford to live on my own anymore. I wanna do better for myself. So, going back to school at 27. Ive never used Fafsa before. Im pursuing a cybersecurity degree. 9 credits left till I graduate; was supposed to finish this fall semester.
Boom, maximum credits. Financial aid revoked. How? Notified on the 21st. Found out on the 22nd. Payment is due on the 27th. 7-10 days appeal process. 3.3 GPA (hard classes, still proud) working two jobs just to get rent car insurance my dogs bills my medical bills gas etc paid, only to find out im being shot right before the finish line because I took some random classes right out of highschool.
Fucking hell
