Out of the blue, my financial aid package was completed and on it stated that I had been given an AIU private loan in the amount of $6000.00 I know I had applied for this loan at the same time I applied for the Wachovia Educational Loan. But, what I didn't know was that I wasn't given nor would ever be given any disbursment papers of this loan.
I had no knowledge of the repayment schedule or interest rate addressed to that loan. I have contacted the company how it is mentioned in the agreement terms to cancel my agreement. I have not even taken any courses yet. But, I can't get any representative of AIU online to give to me a receipt of the acknowledgement of my request to cancel my agreement.
I have filed a complaint as well with the Better Business Bureau of this ordeal. I do not know if my cancellation has been accepted or if I'm going to incur any further charges. I am highly interested in starting a class action suit against AIUonline for their deceptive practices. Anyone with knowledge of a suit, please contact me.

I am still waiting for the reimbursement of my $50 application fee. So, until receiving that, and at least a 6 month span of no further billing from them, I will not close out my BBB complaint. I suggest that others who are having trouble with AIU to file a complaint as well, and forward it to the AIU compliancy officer ( the email is on BBB ) and demand that she taken action to help with your complaint. Let me know how you all make out! Good luck!
