What is the name of your state?NYS
Hi all.
In 1998, I attended a college out Montana, and withdrew before the semester was over. The college has been after me since then for $2,200 in tuition - they claim that the financial aid was taken back from them because i didn't complete the semester.
At the time, I signed a payment agreement with them (because I expected to continue my attendance there). I then moved back to NY.
They placed it with a collection agency, who contacted me about 2 months ago. I have been able to negotiate away the collection agency's fee (they wanted to add $1K to the bal owed to the school!). I am supposed to start making installment payments this month...
But, I got to thinking about the statute of limitations...
Remember, I live in NY, the school is in MT. Debt incurred in 1998. never paid anything on it, but did sign a payment agreement in 1998...
Do I still owe?
THANKS ALL! MUCH APPRECIATED!
