My father developed a gambling addiction and drained my college fund without telling me. If my parents had told me right away I would've had time to take a leave of absence and work full-time or apply for additional financial aid. Instead the school kicked me out for unpaid tuition and won't let me come back to receive my degree.

I completed all the coursework for a BA in CS. I just couldn't pay for it, so no degree for me.
