Today, I borrowed my dad's laptop to type an essay. While I was saving it, I noticed some curious looking files and I opened them. They were rejection letters from all the colleges I had applied to. My dad had been forging them so he wouldn't have to pay for my tuition bills. FML

Asshole, he should of told you he couldn't afford them so you had time to get a job and to apply for some scholarships. Sorry that your dad is a coward and a selfish bastard (assuming he didn't just lost his job) but then he wouldn't have enough time to forge them. pre-meditated bastardness.

dick move! does he not want you to go to school and be successful?

Fake. None of the colleges you applied to let you check you admission status online? And what's the reason for their rejection? Unless your grades are pretty shit that you expect them to reject you.

The Dad made the rejection letters. Also assuming the dad threw away the acceptance letters, you would need to find your student ID # and Pin to log in to check your acceptance status.

While I agree you should be able to check the status online, the OP might not have gotten the info since apparently her dad is trying to keep her away. But just because you have good grades, you might not be accepted into schools. Trust me, I'm a 4.0 unweighted and I got rejected from my top school simply because there's many people competing for few spaces. And they don't have to tell you why they rejected you.

not all colleges has the admission status online. some of them will only mail it.

You could be surprised how many D student idiots apply for many colleges and never get into any. Just because you scraped by in high school doesn't guarantee college, even clown college. Plus, why check online when you've already been rejected?

If this is true, it sounds soo intense, and un-Asian.

What does being Asian have to do with anything here? :/

And why would your dad do that? He is not obligated to pay your tuition, you know? Stop bitching and get a part-time job and get student loan like everybody else!

Obviously there's nothing wrong with not paying a child's tuition, the problem is with the fake rejection letters. If you think you've been rejected from everywhere then you don't have the student loan option, do you? What's wrong with you people?

@Melo, OP must have expected his dad to pay his tuition, or else why would OP's dad waste his time designing letter heads, writing fake rejection letters if it's not his responsibility?

Here's a novel idea, how about you pay for your own ******* education like all the non-rich people in my country? Hello student loan!

I bet she would have IF SHE KNEW SHE WAS ACCEPTED INTO COLLEGE

Student loans are selling your sould. Sounds like something my dad would do because he's that cheap

I bet you can get your dad into all sorts of legal trouble for that. Talk to a lawyer? That's really a miserable thing, what he did. It's never too late to try again.

Good idea! I'd say sue him for all he's worth but that wouldn't be much...

OMG your dad IS ******** of the day!

OP's father should have told her she was accepted to the schools so that she could apply for financial aid. My parents haven't put much toward school itself, but I've been lucky to have them help with other things when I needed it. But a father forging rejection letters? What a jerk. So, OP, FYL
