    Question School Tuition

    My question involves collection proceedings in the State of: NY. I registered in school for a semester that I did not finish due to health problems, and the school is charging me the whole year. My debt is $25,000 which was sent to collections by the school without giving me time to request a payment plan. This is not a loan; the school is charging me the whole year because I did not properly discharged myself from school. I need to get my transcripts in order to enroll in another school. I do not have the money to pay it in full, and it could take me more than 10 years to pay this debt which I think I should not have, and I can not go to school.
    Is there anything that can be done? it is bankruptcy a solution? would I be able to get my transcripts after bankruptcy? can I take the school to court because I was not in school and they are charging me as if I was?
    Thanks for your help

    would I be able to get my transcripts after bankruptcy?
    no

    can I take the school to court because I was not in school and they are charging me as if I was?
    yet you admit to: ;
    the school is charging me the whole year because I did not properly discharged myself from school.
    Did you fail to withdraw properly?

    . My debt is $25,000 which was sent to collections by the school without giving me time to request a payment plan.
    were you under the understanding they had to offer you a payment plan? They don't.

    the only question is how can they charge you for the full year if you signed up for only one semester. Have you asked them why they are charging for the full year and not just the semester you were registered for?
