Question

me getting any money for college from Financial aid

I am 25, Married with a child, making $90,000 together?

When i was younger they said my mom made too much, which was bull, cause I had no money for school.

Living in northern NJ 90000 isnt really much, i pay 1000 a month for day care, then rent, bills, etc........i really dont have $20,000 a year to pay for school.

thanks robert, i listen to him everyday.....thats why i dont have money for school we are paying off debt!

Answer 1

I went thru the same thing when I was younger too -- with the parents making too much money, but I was doing the school thing on my own. They shouldn't expect parents to contribute for tuition costs.
Talk to a financial person at your school. Apply for it and see if they change their minds later (I got aid after I registered even though I was told that I wouldn't get any). They base it on the credits that you take (the more credits, you have a better chance of getting help).


Good Luck!
