> Ok, I am fuming.

That sounds frustrating!--hope that gets straightened out for you. My sister-in-law had the same kind of problem when she transferred from one college to another. And then I have an incomplete on my record because I thought I had withdrawn from a class but at the end of the semester I found out someone had screwed up the paperwork, and nobody at the school office could figure out how to fix it. Grumble. . .

Anyway, hope you're able to get your minor. Maybe if you can get written statements from the advisors who told you that you didn't need to take another class it would help?

I have a good idea of how you feel about that frustration from a different standpoint. I have a student who went to registration to sign up for a class I specified. Someone hadn't added that class to the schedule and the student got placed into another class of the same description. My student had already had that class so he didn't get credit for the one he actually took.

AND NOW - the registrar's office can't figure out how to fix it and give the student the credit because our system won't allow it! My boss and I have fought the administration over this for the better part of a year now. And they just don't budge!

It's an embarrassment to me and my boss. And yet the registrar's office says it's the student's problem, that he should have noticed they had his paperwork wrong. Thing is, my paperwork and the paperwork I sent with the student to registration was 100% correct. It was the registrar's error!
