enrollment pressure/ fin-aid lies and theft

3

This school is a piece of work. After I was repeatedly email and phone pressured about enrolling here... I finally accepted a call from an enrollment advisor at this so called school. Now let me tell you how I was literally step by step guided and persuaded (he may as well been the one typing because he answered every check box except my social security no) ... into signing a promissory for a 9, 000+ loan Before even being asked what I'd be studying... nor was i informed of their tuition costs! I also requested the 5, 000 pell. Ok whatever that's no big deal, the guy was good at his job so what right? Not so fast... here's where it gets tricky, I am currently awaiting disbursement of a refund after completing a verification process... Why the heck did i receive this email a short while ago from my financial advisor: "We are currently waiting for your verification worksheet to be pulled over and then the processing of your financial aid will begin. At that time, the time frame is still 30 to 60 days to be completed. Please keep in mind that since you are a first time borrower of financial aid, there is a 30 day delay from the time you begin classes and your funds will not release to your student account until week 6. By then, it would be 7 to 10 days before a refund would be sent back to you if you were eligible to receive one. You currently requested for $4, 700 in student loan funding and may be eligible for $5, 550 in grant funding. That should be just enough to cover your 8 classes for the first year which cost a total of $10, 200. ...Basically saying that i wont be able to receive a refund right? Someone please explain why these thieves think just because i was vulnerable and naive when enrolling here, that i would now develop amnesia in regards to the amount of the loan I was forced to request and promise to repay? Am I tripping or are they truly this despicable? Please let us know if you have any other questions. Thank you, Emily Pham Senior Finance Advisor, West Division
