I don't qualify for a student loan??? You've got to be kidding me.

Hey everyone,
This week has been a very hard week for me. God has tested me in so many ways. At this point I'm not even completely sure how I am going to finish paying for school. I found out on Friday that the Stafford loan I had last semester and thought I had this semester has been revoked. Apparently I do not qualify as an independent, (which I don't understand) and my parents household income was too large to qualify me for a loan from the government. What the heck does that mean. I think that is absolutely crazy because I live on my own and pay my own bills. I don't live in my parents household. How is that I am not independent? I haven't lived at home in years. And it just really sucks because now I don't qualify for any loans. I qualified for loans in undergrad and my parents had the same income. How is it that now they don't want to qualify me? They really don't understand that I am paying majority of my tuition myself. My parents have done their part and have put themselves in enough debt for me for my undergrad education. Now I need to do this on my own and how can I if I can't even get a loan? I mean I am barely making all of my bills now, but by the Grace of God I am making it. God is so good. I know that God did not bring me this far to leave me in the dark. I know I am supposed to be at AMDA. I can feel it. I have felt it since I first heard about the school. I know that I am destined to be a professional dancer, but there are just some bumps along the road before I get there. And believe me this is a big bump!!! I have been applying to scholarships and hopefully I get one. Pray that I get one, and that this situation works itself out. Thanks for reading. Until next time.
Stay to tuned for a sneak peek of the new choreography I am working on to Rhythmnation. Video soon to come :)
