Screw you grad school
I'm a little more than two weeks out from my defense and the following occurred today:
1. One of my committee members has not been receiving all my e-mails. So I need to resend everything.
2. A petition the grad school originally said I didn't need they now say I do need. I think I have two days to get it to them. And I am not local to the school anymore, so I can't just run around campus, then drop the form off.
I hate this week.
Re: Screw you grad school
Wee, I concur.
There was a major change to my program this time last year. Classes are still in the process of being approved and given official numbers, added to the program of study, etc.
The result is th at I graduate in May, have a research proposal due next week required for graduation, but still am not a candidate for graduation. I have been chasing the paperwork trail for months now. I have been assured that since it is the School of Nursing's and University's issue I will graduate, but I still am not convinced.
i am glad to hear this happened to someone else, too. my parents think i am going to a diploma mill and getting a masters in life experiences, with all the screwups of my program.
classes not being available until 10 days before they begin -- who does that?! my school.
We also went through a massive program change, but everyone who came in under the old program was allowed to remain in it rather than trying to conform to the new one (which would have increased our time in school). That's been another source of annoyance where the grad school is concerned.
Yes, it does happen else where. Last year spring semester, the unit hours were wrong on one of our classes. To make it up the SON had us register for a 700 level special study class to make the rest of the units up.
Wrong. The University told them to request an additional section of the original class so we could register for 2 sections, get our 4 correct units and be able to sit for national boards.second
Now they have to petition and all this crap to drop 700 level class and add the section. Ohandplusalso petition to fix the class we took last summer to fix its course number and title as well. And may make it so we can graduate. By May 21st.
And that's why this situation sucks even harder: It's the end and I already work an 8-5 job.
If I don't get real clarification soon, I'm probably going to need to take the afternoon off to get it straightened out.
one of the professors didn't show up for class last week because the program advisor got the dates wrong.
i feel like i am in kindergarten, not grad school.
Crisis momentarily averted. They will accept the form next week, so much overnight mailing is going to occur.
I think I'll just tell everyone to sign in black ink just in case.
And have I mentioned that I still haven't been sent a new copy of the screwed up form they sent me a couple of weeks ago?
