Here's the situation-
1. My GPA is okay, it's not that high but I'm not on probation.
2. Last Fall, I was suffering from health problems-I failed some classes.
If I don't do the classes then I will end up staying at this school for an extra year.
3. I went to my advisor in Feb-I have a pink document signed by my advisor with the date. It's May, the class is closed, and I'm not register for it. I went to the assistant dean today-May 3rd and mentioned that it's not fair. He mentioned that it doesn't matter if it's not fair-there's a wait list.
4. Even if I take the class in the summer, I'm still 2 classes behind. I figure I could add it onto my Fall schedule. But then I would be taking more credits than allowed. Problem: The school didn't approve my request for the extra 2 classes. If I don't do the two classes, then I would be a year behind.
Do I have a case? I been getting the run around from the Dean office since February.
Thank you

Uuuuh, sometimes stuff happens and you have to extend the time you're in school. This is one of those. Deal with it.

I don't mind staying an extra year-but it's $20,000 more. Which I don't have. Only because they refuse to let me take 2 extra classes in the Fall-which should be my decision to make. Also, I'm not register for classes in the summer-when I went in Feb to request it. I received a pink sheet with the classes that I'm supposed to be registered for that has my advisor signature and date on it. Registration for summer starts in March. I was a month early. Wouldn't the pink sheet-counts as a breach of contract/agreement.

Your command of English and spelling shows you need the extra time. :rolleyes:
