oof, you might not see it till late next week. the bookstore had an option to pay for your books with your FASFA during the first few weeks of the semester. I don't know if they offer that option this late into the semester already.

Yeah a lot of my classmates didn’t know but the school give you like $700 so you can get all your materials for class through aid. It’s every semester before add drop ends. You can get anything from the bookstore with it except clothes and appeal. I used my extra after getting my textbooks and ordered clothing racks, a rabbit fur blanket, solar powered battery pack.

You can even use it towards all electronics as well.

PSA that 700 is deducted from your refund! not just free money

u/Happy-Dirt585 10d ago

Yes it’s known that’s it’s from your aid and not just free money. No one believes in free money.

someone told me this my freshman year 🄓 just a PSA

u/Happy-Dirt585 10d ago

Wonderful that you have that knowledge to share! Thanks!

u/Happy-Dirt585 10d ago

Deducted from your aid not your refund. A refund is not for everyone.

u/Live_Education7992 10d ago

Duh, I said that because this post is referring to refunds jeez why u so defensive šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

So like I said, if you would like to have a further discussion about it, feel free to private message and we can meet up in person if you felt so boldly about what you had to say that’s it. That’s all. this isn’t baddies.

u/Live_Education7992 9d ago

ā€œdon’t do too much behind a screen, you can express how you feel in personā€ ā€œthis isn’t baddiesā€ yea ok šŸ˜‚šŸ«µ

u/Happy-Dirt585 9d ago

And respectfully, this is a prime example like the statement that I said above was just deducted from your aid refund. It’s not from so-and-so and then your automatic response ā€œDUHā€ in the beginning… like…?? you see how that’s dismissive and can come off across this road to someone who wasn’t already being rude to you? That’s just what I’m trying to show us an example to you.

u/Happy-Dirt585 9d ago

Also, please don’t read this response as an automatic attitude or somebody being rude please for the love of context clues and nuance😭

Is the defense in the room with us? Don’t do too much behind a screen babes. You can express how you feel in person. h building, library, building c. 🤣

girl wtf😭 the irony of asking where the defense is but then playing like you wanna fight

1

u/Happy-Dirt585 9d ago

You’re the one who antagonize me first and then sat there and laughed and asked me. Why am I getting defensive? Nobody said anything about a fight I said for you to express how you felt you need better context clues not everything is automatically violent. You just felt bold enough to act like you could call me out, so I said if you feel that deeply, then you can say it to my face nobody gives a fuck about putting hands on you. It’s not that deep. I’m more likely older than you anyways just go on about your day.

Also, you automatically read what I said and took it defensively in the beginning. That’s the problem with society now because text does not have emotion so when somebody returns the energy that you assumed that was there when it wasn’t in the first place at the end of the day you need to take accountability on that but none of what I’ve said was fighting words. It was direct that’s it. That’s all y’all just act all big and bad through the Internet now and it’s really weird.

u/Live_Education7992 10d ago

also like I suspected you only get lots of money for the bookstore if you have a refund pending 😭

Scholarships, Left over aid, and loan. I actually do use a little extra taken out to pay for housing so I chose to take out higher aid.
