Financial Aid
I was told by Ashford University,
when enrolling in an online degree
completion program that the first
course would be free, along with the
books. When, after starting the initial
class, I could not get anyone to
review my transcripts and inform me
exactly how many units they would
be applying towards the degree- I left
the (free) class. They then took
$2000.00 out of my financial aid.
This is totally unethical. Is it illegal?
It should be. I can't get anyone to
call me back from financial aid. They
won't even tell me what the
$2000.00 was applied towards. Even
if the class hadn't been free (as I was
told it was) the class would be around
1000.00 not 2000.00. Do I have any
rights here? Thanks, Jane
Re: Financial Aid
Yes, Jane, you do have rights. Send me an email so that we can talk. Do you happen to know whether or not Ashford Univ. is registered in California as a distance post-secondary institution?
