[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At the start of DD’s 2nd semester freshman year, her dad announced, he would not pay his share. It wasn’t anything she did. I’d like to believe it also had nothing to do with the fact that I started dating my now DH a few months earlier, but whatever. It was too late to adjust FA or start the monthly payment plan.

The accounts payable office university told us that she could not have a balance and continue attending, but the ombudsman’s office simply froze her account and told us to pay as much as we could whenever we could and she couldn’t reregister or get records until the balance was paid. 
She continued living in the door and eating meals.

It was all paid off by mid-April. She did miss the housing deadline and the first wave of registration, but they didn’t kick her out.[/quote]

Not OP, but: I'm so sorry your ex--a student's dad, supposedly committed to her education!--was such a total jack@$$ toward his own child, PP. How short-sighted of him; she will resent him the rest of her life, and rightly so.

At least the school worked out something within its payment rules. It sounds as if the OP is currently unwilling even to inquire with her DD's college to ask what to do and would leave it all up to her kid to figure out what you seem to have helped your DD find out from her college. OP, have you considered asking the college financial office, instead of strangers with kids at different schools, what happens if tuition doesn't show up? Or would inquiring be "helping" your DD more than you want? [/quote]
