Is student responsible for debts accrued at 16 years old?

<p>It is likely that this change was made because you son is now 18. The bills from the Bursurs office at both of my kids’ schools are addressed to THEM because they are both 18 (or over). Both schools (at parent orientation) said that bills for students 18 or older…and any other info (e.g. grades) would be sent to the STUDENT. For students under 18, this “stuff” is mailed to the parent…because the child isn’t yet at the age of majority. This does NOT, however, address the issue of WHO is responsible for paying the bill. It’s just who it is being MAILED to.</p>

<p>It think Calmom’s advice and Cur’s are dead on. You need to contact folks where you are. Send those letters, get some legal advice (legal aid), and see how it all plays out.</p>
