    My wife just had surgery (literally, sitting with her in the recovery room now) and just getting here cost $800. When we got here they told us it’d be another two grand. No idea how we’re gonna pay that.

      Talk with the financial aid office. Usually those people are pretty good about getting it reduced, especially if you don’t have insurance, and they should be able to create a payment plan.

      Also check state law. Sometimes there’s legal protection for you.
