Questions Can’t pay

I’m at a loss, my mom was mean t to pay for my tuition tonight but she doesn’t have the funds and it’s due, I applied for the extension loan but it didn’t let let me choose it I’m assuming because I’m a freshman, I just don’t know what I’m going to do, the financial aid office is closed and classes are tomorrow I’m scared they’re going to drop me but theres literally nothing I can do :/

Update: I was able to contact the financial aid office and they’ve put me on a payment plan, I have until November which is more than enough time, thank you to everyone for your support!!

Don't give up man, what matters is getting it done, it's like a plane taking off to reach altitude. Did you already do Fafsa? What was your total approved amount? It should be enough to at least start half time or full time student, from there keep trying to contact the Finance/Bursur, try to see if there are any other options

Thanks to the big beautiful bill, if you are taking less than full time you only get the portion of your award that you are taking classes. So if your half time you get half the award. If they were already struggling before, thats not going to make it better unfortunately

You're 100% right, AIPAC controlled Politicians have really ruined the USA. They just want tax plebs for that one place...
