WTF is wrong with schools?

[24788]

I dropped four classes right before the semester started and they're still trying to charge me for one of the classes. Anyone have experience with this?

Year ago when I was in college yes I have expierenced it. you get charged if you drop the classes after the semester starts

No.

But what I think you should do is take your pain and anger out on that bitch receptionist who is always smiling and laughing at you. Now, walk into the building tomorrow walk right up to her . . . lean in . . . and sneeze in her face! BO-YAH!!! Make sure it's a nice, wet, swine flu infested sneeze now. We don't want one of those seemingly dry pussy sneezes. We want something that's going to cover her entire face and drip from her chin and make her cry . . . yeah that's right. But don't feel bad for the poor minimum wage receptionist. She deserves it for being so fucking smug!

So now you know how to get these fuckers back. My work here is done.

Or you could just burn the whole place down. It's really up to you :dunno:








Hmm . . . pussy sneezes?? ::mental image:: Boner ALERT! :banana:

Go to Student Services, and show them proof that you dropped the course.

I have no proof. I did it online before school started.

It should still be documented. Student Services should still be able to help you out. Have you talked to them?

Schools have a policy on when you can drop classes and not be charged for them. Such as if you drop before classes start you get a full refund, if you drop after two weeks you get a 75% refund and so on. I would look into your school's policy first before you get a pissy with someone just doing their job.

Most schools usually show you all classes you registered for/completed/dropped. If you can access this info online, then head over to the Registrar's office?

You could ask each professor to run a roster showing when you dropped the course....

Get your Ph.D. somewhere else.
Go back to said school and teach everyone the evils of education.

It'll work 'cause you're Ph.D.!


Good luck

I had something similar happen. At the JC I went to I never attended a class (and your supposed to be automatically dropped) I ended up getting an A, and also having to pay $60 for it. I never attended the class once, but according to them Im a damn good mig, and tig welder.

 

[24788]

This is just bs. All I can do is try to waiver it. They expect me to pay for classes I did not take.

Remember, despite what they try to say or what they try and potray of themselves, a place of higher education is a business not some altruistic place to teach the next generation and make the world a better place. Like all businesses they do what businesses do. They try to get as much money and/or influence/prestige as possible for themselves and they do it in any manner they can get away with.
