I'm still around. Sorry for not updating sooner, I've been duking things out with my school.

At the beginning of the semester, my financial aid said they would pay for my classes, and told the school that. A few weeks ago, I get a call saying I'll have to pay for my classes. Called the campus bookstore, and they showed that I had everything paid..so I called my financial aide, leaving a voice mail telling them that. Figured everything was done with.
Get another call from the financial aid, telling me to call the college. Called, and the woman I spoke to said that I owed $540 or so for my tuition. If I, or the financial aid, didn't get it paid soon, they'd pull my registration...which would effectively kick me out of class, a little more than half way into the semester. Turns out, the Financial aid implemented a new policy. Previously they didn't mind if you only had 7 or 8 semester hours, as long as you made good grades...but they ended up being audited after registration, which they apparently got in trouble for their previous activity. Now they can only pay for 12 or more semester hours. Anything less, they'll pay for books, it seems.
Not only that, the financial aid assumed that I was getting a Pell Grant in time to pay for the classes...which could still be two weeks or more till I know if I'm awarded or not.
To finish the story up quickly? Am I still in class? Yeah, thankfully because my grandmother loaned me the money to cover tuition. I just hope I can get enough from my Pell Grant, if I get one, to pay her back.

I'll try and come up with more stuff quicker in the future.
