Finally found a consolidation option for my loans so I can get them to a better servicer and get them to qualify for a payment plan I can actually afford. And stop my uni's fin aid office doing bullshit like dicking around with me and putting me on the wrong aid when I was literally homeless (forbearance instead of economic hardship deferment, caused a fuckton of interest to pile up all at once). Fingers crossed the consolidation and everything goes through.

#if your job is to financial guidance people into doing the objectively shittier option your job needs to not exist #yes it was one of the loans held by uni managed by a company and it was BALLS #they were somehow monumentally worse than every other loan I've dealt with #I was literally starving in a motel paid for by charity at the time because there aren't shelters that take couples in my area #I wasn't exactly in a state to ask detailed questions and was easy to manipulate into whatever the hell program the fin aid office felt lik #genuinely evil behavior from the fin aid office #student loans #student debt #debt consolidation #poverty #bek speaks
