About PegGott

PegGott started this conversation

I have been helping people who are going through life crisis, especially clerics of all faith traditions.  I could do so much more with a graduate degree.  I have found a program that will allow me to get that credential and accomodates my disability.

I was a mid-level executive - an engineer.  I never thought the answer to the question "Where do you see yourself in 5 years?" would be "Disabled." 

Why am I asking for assistance?  There is a loop hole in any educational loan program. If I become disabled during the course of school, I would be exempted from repaying the loan.  If I accept a loan program while disabled and I cannot finish for whatever reason, I am responsible for the total amount of the loan.  I am determined to complete my grad work, but that is too great a risk for someone dependent on Social Security's fixed income.

 I am casting my bread upon the waters.
