News of Financial Aid

I been receiving a few of these recently, I don't know ITT Tech got my personal email address, but I am guessing Sallie Mae provided it to them and in turn provided it to these people. My loans are always paid on time and are never past due, so I'm not at risk for a default. I deleted the first email that claimed I was at risk of default and today I got another one. ...

Like other ITT grads, I've decided that I'd like to go to a real school, such as a community college, to get a real education beyond anything that my former "school" could ever provide.

I recently applied for a Federal Pell Grant, but received a rejection email stating that "you are not eligible to receive a Federal Pell Grant because you reported that you have a bachelor's degree (Item 27) or you are working on ...

Hello all,

Brief intro. I was attending the online campus (211). Without getting into the actual lack of education and (mostly) incompetent "facilitators/instructors". I will state my current problem. I tend to be a squeaky wheel when I feel I am being treated unfairly, so once I decided to leave ITT I went on a bit of a campaign...that um got me thrown out. (LOL)

This was only a few days ago. (8/28/10) Now I ...

When I started at ITT, I told financial aid would do everything they could to find me financial aid, however at the last minute I was dropped to a part time student, which I attended for 7 quarters, That whole time I my absolute only option given to me from financial aid was to have either of my parents apply for a "Parent Plus Loan", a loan with outrageous interest rates and has to be ...

Ok, so I am done with ITT. I graduate September 19 with my Associate in CNS. Overall, I am appalled with the school, but I finished anyway. I managed to pay with my MET (Michigan Educational Trust), which barely covered it with the ~$1800 a quarter pell grant. I got a call about 6 months ago that even with the grants, I would still owe $2800. I told them this was unacceptable, because they really ...

According to the Sallie Mae website, It shows that my ITT loan is paid in full after 13.5 years. I have graduated from this corporation in December of 1997. I have contacted Sallie Mae and requested wriitten documentation in the mail and also report it to the credit bureaus that I have paid it off. Should I contact ITT on this also or not. This has been about a month ago and I havnt heard ...

This school is not state accredited like an university and operates like it should not. To make this clear, here is what is going on.
1. This school is again NOT-STATE-ACCREDITED.
2. This school is a SCAM.
3. After you attend this school (either not complete or completed) and plan on continuing your education, you find out your credits are not transferable (accepted to ) other schools. *Meaning you wasted your time and money.
4. ...

I enrolled at ITT and started taking online classes
last summer. I was told that it was all covered by finical aid and there
would be no out of pocket costs. After starting my 3rd quarter I was fed
up with their program and decided to go with the local community collage
here. When I called ITT to withdrawal I was told that I owed them
$13,000 for the time I had spent in class ...

Today I got a voicemail from a company called grc, it was cut off and only the number was stated. I googles it, it seems Sallie Mae decided to sell our information. From what I read it's a scam to get your personal information. Apparently it's a collection company but I always pay my bills on time and I am not late on any loans. So if thats your case I would ignore the message, ...

Im not even sure if this is the correct place to post, but here goes. My son attended ITT Tech for almost 2 years, he withdrew and Sallie Mae is now trying to collect on a student loan that Sallie Mae says my husband co-signed for. My husband and son both told the financial aid person that my husband would not co-sign for a loan. When we got the paperwork my husbands name is typewritten ...
