Legal Question in Education Law in California

Hello,

I migrated from Pakistan in 2000, At the time I did not know much about the education system in US.

At that time, I only had a high school certificate from Pakistan not from USA. They signed me up up for the course or I signed up for the course at ITT Tech in 2002 not knowing I will owe about $42000.00 for that course.

I found this article on the internet.

http://studentaid.ed.gov/PORTALSWebApp/students/english/discharges.jsp

I would like to know that, Would I be eligible for any kind of Loan Discharge.

I still have been doing the same thing to make the living, that I used to do before signing up for the

School. I did,t get any benefit from this education.

Please let me know if anything possible to discharge these loans.

Thanks,

Yes, you may be eligible for a loan discharge if it was backed by the federal government-- if at the time of enrollment you would not meet the requirements for employment in the occupation for which the training program supported by the loan was intended. We would need to know more facts before making this determination, but I would be happy to speak with you further.

If you would like to speak with me, feel free to contact me by phone or email.
