hi all,
if you have a moment please help me with some advice:)
i was in college 1996 to 2000 as a foreign student. university gave me fin aid for about 3500$, i signed the promissory note in 1998 (did not even have a SS# then)but was never able to pay that debt. i dropped out, moved on. last time a CR tried to collect on that debt was in 2000/2001. this debt never came up on any of my files although inquiries from CRs did a few times over the years. Today I received a letter from a new CR titles SECOND NOTICE and asking to recover almost 40 grand for this college! I am about to go to med school and all my loans come from the federal government (have been approved already). I am very concerned about this situation. What to do?
I opened the letter so I can't send it back to sender...very,very worried, please advise
thank you!
