Matthew Loftin is drawn to computers. “This is something I’ve always loved since being young” he told Action 9′s Jason Stoogenke.
He signed up at ECPI University to study Information Technology. He says he needed and received financial aid. “Everything started out fine and well,” he said.
But then he had some personal issues, mainly how to get to class and back. “I was trying to take a break and regroup. Try to figure out my transportation situation and make it work a little better,” he said.
He dropped out and told Stoogenke that he was supposed to get some money back.
It wasn’t clear how much he was supposed to be refunded, but Loftin says he didn’t get it. He also realized these things can take time.
