Alright so I'm going into my FALL semester with mostly upper division. Tuition is 3k and housing is 525 a month. I'm trying to get a job, but nothing is set as of today. I am only getting a 2.5k loan for the semester. I only have 9k debt right now and don't want to add over half of that just for one year (2.5k both semesters)

So I wanted to know if there was a way to requalify and add grants after you've already received an award letter.

Also should I just ask for a bigger loan or take a semester off? I only have one more lower division course I need to take, but would it be wise to just take extra courses to stay a full time student at a CC?

I really do want to attend next semester, since I think it's going to be my favorite year, but I don't want to put that burden on my family and dig a deeper hole for myself.

Please tell me theres some magical hidden grants lying around for me!
