I am a high school senior in Alabama. I just got accepted into Auburn. I am hopefully getting the NROTC scholarship to pay for most of everything, but I still need funds to keep me off the street and give me a roof over my head. I thought I could just get a student loan and pay for housing, but I paid a visit to my recruiter and she said If I accept the scholarship I can't apply for any federal procurement of any kind including student loans. She gave me this paper to sign. She said it stated if I sign it I am forfeiting my privilege to apply for aid if I accept the scholarship. It actually plainly stated I, blank, am not on any debarrment list. The paper explained the general services administration keeps a list of persons who can't apply for procurement programs I.e. FAFSA. It never stated I couldnt apply it just asked me to say I'm not on any such list. I have no idea what she is talking about. If I can't get a student loan idk what I'm going to do. I will live on the street if I have to but i really don't want to. Somebody help explain what my options really are.
