Subj: Dear Georgia University Office of Admissions

 

Hi, my name is Stan Bayley, an incoming freshman from New Mexico state. The reason I am writing this email to you is because I have been accepted to Georgia University, but I just cannot find the way to pay for all the tuition and other expenses. I've already applied for FAFSA to get loans and grants, but I don't hear from them. It has always been my dream to go to Georgia University and I don't want to miss this opportunity of my lifetime to attend there. I would really appreciate it if you could suggest to me ways to pay for the tuition and other expenses. Thank you very much. I appreciate your help.
