F'ing Aple

Finally called my old financial aid office at LMU to discuss the application for the Aple grant -- a forgiveness program to help me pay off my loan because I teach at an urban high school. Fucking... shit. Found out that the only way to apply for the APLE grant is WHILE enrolled for the credential. So, because I didn't apply three years ago, I can't get my giant student loan forgiven at all. Really shitty. I'm really happy I decided to go to grad school at a private university, so that I could owe a bank 40 or more thousand dollars for the next thirty years of my life. Just to get a teaching credential. So, yeah, moral of the story... whoever my financial aid advisor was will be sore tomorrow.
