Finacial Aid Messed up BIG TIME!!!!!!

Alexandria Jackson · Thursday, September 1st 2005 at 5:05PM · 311 views
There was a time i hated the finacial aid office and its whole process. I have never recieved free money until now.
Ok this is what happen
I get a letter from the school telling me that my registration and schedule have been canceled because my tuition was not fully paid by August 11, 2005. I was mad because most of that time i was waiting on them, so i prayed. Fortunately i had the money to pay for my on tuition, so i write a check for tuition and than went and bought my books with my card. When i bought my books i took out too much so than the money for tuition wasnt there anymore. so i get a letter from the bank saying my check has been returned. The Next day i go and borrow $100 from my parents and get 2000 dollars cash out the bank and go pay for tuition. The lady in the office tells me that the computers says i paid, i said i did but the check was returned, than she tells me as long as computer says i paid i cant give her any money. Just the other day i sign my promissory note and to day i got the money for tuition in the mail as a refund. I called the school told them the story, and all they said was the computer has that i paid for it so the money is mine. When God shows up he shows out. Thank you Jesus

Sure i wouldnt mine. Funny thing though, i went to Alabama State University (a HBCU) last year and really didnt have a problem with Finacial aid, but i am at Calhoun College (a Non HBCU) and they cancell my schedule, registration and last semester they rejected my loan and i had to pay out of pocket. I thought that was funny.

"God" is such a good "God" isn't "He" Ms. Alexandria.
Thank you for sharing this powerful testimony, prayerfully many people will see this.
I will have to use this story in one of my speeches if i may.
"God" Bless
Sincerely
William

p.s. This is something any age group can receive as a Blessing if they blind not themselves.
Great way to share that spirit regardless of wisdom from the eyes of a babe:-)
