I was charged for out of state tuition after relying on advice from your bursars office right after I graduated high school and I made it clear to the person assisting me with financial aid that I had no family members that could help me with these things either. I made the decision to go to necc because I knew that any other school would cost a fortune and well unbeknownst to me, I was charged for out of state tuition wrongfully, which made it cost the same as if Id have attended a four year school anyways. I was lied too when I asked if my residency state mattered at the time because at the time of actually signing up and getting the loans I was a mass resident, I graduated high school, had owned a home and was also born and raised there. I had mentioned to them that I was considering a move with my dad in the future right over the border, in *************** and not only was I told that I should put the address I was planning on moving too at some point in the future but also that it didnt matter one way or the other as far as price goes and then I had to take out loans for ever bit of the price paying nearly triple what I should have, as a result having loans follow me to this day and has severely impacted my education and financial situation since. Please someone help me on this. I would never attend necc and pay out of state tuition just for the heck of it when I didnt even live in ** yet at the signing of my financial aid. I feel like I was grossly taken advantage of when I needed somebody to give me good advice and then it has affected my life greatly in many different ways. I can prove residency as well as where I graduated high school my birth certificate the deed to my house etc. etc.
