Leaving mid-term was the big mistake here. I didn't understand how outside scholarships would be cancelled. There was a balance on my student account for the longest time that is now in collections. But other debts are simply medical related. It was a daily 100 mile round trip during therapy, and I let things get off track while I was getting treatment. At the time, it was the only thing I felt I could do.

Oh wow, my bad, I completely let the fact that you overcame cancer slip. Again, while I've never been in the position to have to learn if this was actually the case, I think fin aid would find some way to accommodate you. You're probably aware of this, but the NA community has grown here a lot in the last few years. Sherman Alexie came and gave a talk in Cubberley this past year.
