why GWU sucks part.2

If you are owed a refund:

1) to get that money GWU makes you fill out a ton of paperwork (not including the FAFSA and whatever financial aid forms you have to fill out anyway

2) their antiquated system has not discovered Direct Depost ... a FinAid counselor said to me: "Yeah, we've had mixed up checks, stuff go missing ..." Do you want to lose a couple thousand dollars of federal money you might possibly need to pay your rent, books, and food????

3) the FinAid counselors do not know what they are doing ... they will transfer you until you eventually end up talking to the Dean of the department (okay exaggeration, I was only transferred once)

4) Beware, third party billing might mean that GWU will steal loans back . . . B A S T A R D S!!! Counselors have claimed that this is true and could happen to me.
