On July 29 I received a call from a representative of the UOP by the name of KC Hammond.
After a few days of talking over the phone, I was really interested and gave him all of my information to help me apply for Financial aid and a Staffod Loan.
I was so excited that I received a call from KC stating that I had been accepted and that classes would begin on August 11th... That was until I came to complaint and read all of these complaints against UOP!
After seeing all of these reports, I immediately went to the FAFSA website and deleted the UOP off the list of schools that could receive money from FAFSA! Luckily, my application was still being processed so I am praying that I deleted the school in time before they took any money out!
Then I went directly to the Stafford Loan website and wrote them a letter as well asking that they withdrawl all applications for a loan made on my behalf thru the University of Phoenix!
After that I went directly to the lender site (bank) of the lender I chose to use to apply for the Stafford Loan and asked that no money be sent out to UOP in my name and that I wanted any applications submitted on my behalf by UOP to be considered null and void and that I would not be responsible to pay anything back since I am not approving these loan applications!
Next I not only wrote KC Hammond, but also the UOP withdrawing my application for enrollment. Since my classes were not scheduled to begin until 8/11/08, they have no reason to hold me liable for classes I never even took or attended!
I also saved each and every letter I wrote to everyone to make sure if they tried to pull a fast one on me later and take me to court there would be proof I indeed pulled out before any classes were even taken!
I just pray now that I did everything I could do to get out of this in time!
If there is ever a class action suit I for one would definetly like to be notified, I feel so victimized!
