my school is very poorly staffed, managed, and operated. After returning to college, I am currently in my 5th semester of frustration, and i have been notified that i will not be able to take classes this semester. Its not my fault, and i was told by the local branch director today, that i have done everything i am supposed to. unfortunately, The school hasn’t gotten to my paperwork yet, so the system still shows that I owe the school money. I have loans for every semester that cover this, and the loans are shown and it good standing. But, since the school is about 4 months behind in processing their loans, the real hard cold cash isn’t on the books, and therefor i am shown as “unpaid” which makes me unable to register. Apparently, “the system” knows best, and they will not employ any means to register a student who is ligitimately eligible for registrations until “the system” approves their status. So today, I was told, “yeah.. were sorry but your loans wont drop til feb.. so even though you’ve done everything right, well yeah.. i dont know what to tell you, sorry”.
WHAT?!
so they wont pay me. they are holding my account which means i cant enroll with them OR with another college. and now i have to drop out of school becuase they dont know how to do their work in a timely manner. do i have any legal rights here?? i did nothing wrong!!
