There's nothing wrong, right? No problems with my draft, my credits, nothing, right? So I'm fucking ecstatic, right?

So, of course, today I get this vague e-mail:

Subject: Graduation problem

I would like to point out that GSU called me because I hadn:t paid for my last semester before I could graduate so that they were dropping me out of all of my classes. I had applied for a loan and all of my paperwork was in order, but they were telling me that I:d have to pay them the thousands of dollars ahead of time or be dropped. And because it was rather late in the sememster, and the problem had been resolved already on the gosolar side of things I had them look up my file, and it said that it had been fixed. A week before this lady emailed me saying that there was a problem. And yeah, she looked completely incompetent. Because she was. Weeee. Don:t trust GSU not to try to fuck up your shit. They:re probably just not talking to each other in different departments. Again.

Yeah, they fucked me on my under grad, in much the same way, so i'm pretty hip to their game, this time...

The secret to dealing with GSU is to do everything in person. Go in, talk to someone. If they can't help you, talk to the head of their department. Keep going up.

At least, it worked for me.

I hope it works out, soon.
