I left college in Spring 2014 for financial reasons. I was only recently able to apply again for readmission, but I just found out I have a college bill do for $2567.88. I called up my school and apparently they sent it to collections, something called ACT that handles debts and such.
I only have right around $1900 at the moment and I'm sure I can pay off the rest by Febuary, but that's the issue. I have to pay in full before this Friday or else the bursar can't take the stop off my account and I simply won't be able to attend.
I begged the lady on the phone for a way to allow a payment plan so that I can attend college while paying it off. She flat out said no, either pay in full or say goodbye to going to college.
I'm at such a lose, is there anyone here that knows about debts and if I'm able to do anything about the amount? I never meant to not pay it, but life gets in the way. If I can't do college this semester, I doubt I'll get the chance again for many years...
The college is located in NY.
EDIT: I just received a rude PM, no I'm not looking to simply steal money and haggle, but to be honest if that's an option with the ACT than I would like to pursue it.
