Financial aid has been a godsend but what now? After attending one university, only to decide that I needed practical experience in my field, I moved to a local community college. I took several courses directly related to my field, with the intention of returning to the university after I got the basic knowledge. Now, with the knowledge gained comes the news that I have exceeded the amount of credits in which the school will offer financial aid. This effectively eliminates any chance of a grant or loan through the school. As well, I cannot seem to find any grants or loans which I am eligible for. As I still need a few classes at the local college, of which I cannot afford, before I can transfer to the state college, I wonder what can be done to fill this financial quandry in which I find myself?
