I am a nursing student at USC and at the end of my second year my school basically told me that they made a "mistake" and I should have been charged out of state. Imagine my confusion, shock and outrage. I have lived in SC since I was 14. Their answer? My parents had moved a month before school started. Everyone my parents talked to during orientation and so forth were informed of their moving but no one bothered to tell us this. I am now almost $34,000 in debt. To be payed by graduation or I don't graduate. I can only receive so many loans per year and I'm scared to death that I will not have enough money right now to even continue school. I still have 2 years to go.
Does ANYONE have any advice? An organization or person that will donate? I have already spoke to my school's residency office, financial aid, assistant dean, student services, a lawyer and have even sent letters to my state senator and legislator. Not many listened and less even tried to help.
