[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mom got remarried my freshman year and I lost all my financial aid. Stepdad did not contribute anything and my mom was a preschool teacher. I overloaded ever semester + summers and graduated in 2.75 years. I wish I had more time but private T50s are $$$$ with no finaid. I went straight into a 6 year PhD program so I guess it all evens out in the end.[/quote] Did your mother not anticipate that development? Did she feel bad that her husband chipped in zero?[/quote] Nope and nope. I was the first in my family to go to college (still only actually, 15 years later) so there was 0 understanding of how it all worked. Once I realized what happened I begged them to file taxes married filing separately. She declined because then her husband would owe more taxes. That was not great for our relationship. My point in making this post is that sometimes its a place of privilege to not rush through. [/quote]
