Can I Go?

So, what does a person do ?

Here is an example of what occured 4 months ago. Person A was aked if she wanted to go this year. The reply was I have to see what my finances look like. The final reply was I'm sorry I cannot go this year due to finances.  Hey, but as much as person A wanted to go because of what it meant last year, she finds out there were scholarship given out and she didn't even know about it. Nothing was mentioned and she wasn't even asked.

So, againg what does that person do?
