Expensive consequence of emergency family trip - up to $100,000 in additional future costs at a for-profit school due to missing classes resulting in low GPA and rejection for nursing program at affordable public. <<<

I know that my response will annoy some, particularly some families who make these emotional decisions w/o much/any concern about long term consequence.
Traveling abroad for 2 weeks for an “emergency family trip,” is very short-sighted when the negative consequences are this big.
When the student is ALONE struggling to pay back $100k, he’ll likely reflect badly on his decision or possible family pressure to take such a trip, for such a long time.
