My nephew is due to leave for college on Friday, and we still don't have the bill paid. He screwed himself out of a lot of financial aid by not applying on time. He now has to take out a loan to pay for this year. He asked his great grandfather to co-sign a loan, and he agreed. Today he backed out. This is 2 days away from him entering school, and 3 or 4 trips up to Maine for my nephew to get things worked out. The worst part is that he had someone else call and tell him. Lame lame lame.. So, now my husband and I are deciding if we want to commit financial suicide and co-sign for him, since there is no one else.
We want him to experience college, the entire experience. And we want him the hell out of our basement.. ugh.. what to do, what to do!
