Denied Financial Aid Because of 182 Credits.

[ss20ts]

I'm thinking of paying the entire lot on my credit card, it'll be an extra 2.95% though... They have payment plans, you can split this into 3 payments... However, you missed the deadline, so you can only split it into two now...

Exactly, easy CC points. I get finances can be tough but these degrees are so freaking cheap (and are an investment right?)  and people here hem and haw over something which is 1% the cost of many colleges.  There are a billion ways to make it work.

While you may think there are a billion ways to make it work, that's just not the case for many people. Many people don't have credit cards or hte available credit on a credit card to spend $1700 and hope that's all they need to spend. Many people are from other countries and finances are nothing like in the US.
