My sister’s daughters get some kind of financial aid from their universities. My sister is considering starting a new business but she is concerned that the records of her owning a new business(with the Tax ID and income records) will make her daughters not qualified for their financial aids.
Pleas give suggestion of sources of facts that we can look into.

Okay, after High school I went straight into Johnson and Wales university at Charlotte for accounting (I love accounting)
I went for 2 reasons
1. They accepted me
2. I was always picked on in school so I was so un-used to people being nice to me that the acceptance I got from total strangers drew me right in
For a while it was nice, but then stuff just started to stack up
1. Everyone kept calling me a Chef, IM NOT A GOD DAMN COOK even at job interviews with accounting temp agencies asked me If i was training to be a chef when I had my accounting experience written on my god damn resume right in front of them
2. There were too many black people I KNOW I KNOW it sounds so wrong, but there were like 6 black guys to every white guy its hard to make freinds enough as it is, what about people i have nothing in common with, and I don’t like black girls so meeting a girl was impossible
3. Yes its shallow but I just could not meet a girl there, so many students were black or married
4. I couldn’t stand a 40 minute commute every day
5. The schedule was broken up into trimesters so classes were 2. 5 hours long and breaks were only about a week and a half and never lined up with other schools so I could never do anything social
6. there was no social life what so ever, the only place anything happend was in the dorms and I couldn’t get in the dorms beacuse I didn’t know anyone.
7. The damn Television ads that made my school look like a bullshit community college, and all the people who would always talk about how easy it was to get in and how they don’t even look at your grades
So after 2 years of this and getting my associates and the sad realization that I just wasted 2 years of my life (AND ALOT OF MONEY) I decided that I have to get out and go to a REAL school, so In my last term I took calculus at the community college (it was the only class that I needed and they didn’t teach it, a college without a calculus course figure that out) and beacuse I suck at math, I failed and was left with no way out
so after alot of arguing with my dad and crying from my mom who no matter how much evidence i showed them refused to believe that Johnson and wales was a horrible 2nd rate school (there from Rhode Island where a degree from that campus is actually worth something)
I got to go to community college this year (passed calculus and I am in my second semester)
now I have to apply to NC state (where I really want to go) and UNC Charlotte (my back up, wich I would hate to go)
College is really the last chance I have to be a kid, High school sucked and I always thought I would go to a normal college where I went their for 4 years got my bachelors and then go on, but I’m going to be in school for 5 years,
I always thought people who got their bachelors in 5 years were lazy ne’er do wells, i guess its the universes way of teaching me a lesson. and before I knew how shitty my school was I always made fun of UNCC students (we called it the Default school)
If I don’t get into State or UNCC then my life is ruined. . . plain and simple.
