I applied for the nursing program back in July. I had to fill out my application and have a meeting/interview with the man who was running them. AT THAT TIME I asked him if my transcripts from my old college that I had transferred to this college would be forwarded as well, if I needed a new copy, or what. He said all the transcripts in my file ( old school + new school) would be forwarded.
Well last week I get a card in the mail stating they don't have my old transcript and cannot process my application at this time! So I called up the Selective Admissions office and told them what the man told me and that I was confused as to why my other transcript wasn't forwarded as well. She said she would look into it. Come to find out that NO ONE forwarded EITHER of my transcripts with my application....but since the Office of Selective Admissions has the ability to pull this colleges transcripts...they can see the grades/courses I have taken HERE but only see "transfer credit" from my old school....so they need the OLD transcript to see my grades from before.
*sigh* The deadline is TOMORROW. So yesterday I am up running around the school like a mad crazy lady talking to every person I could about WTH I can do at this point and finally a lady from Selective Admissions said that MULTIPLE people had the same problem and that we could just go to Records+ Registration and make a photocopy of our old transcripts and drop them off in the Nursing Dept. I did so- and saw at LEAST 30 other people doing the same thing.
Well TODAY I get another email from the head of Selective Admissions whom I had emailed...saying I got your photocopy but please be aware that IT HAD TO BE A BRAND NEW SEALED OFFICIAL TRANSCRIPT.
Of course, NOT AT ALL what I and dozens of others were told when we applied and had our interviews.
So tomorrow I am going up there and finding out who HIS boss is and having a major rant session.....because at this point it seems like my dream of getting in for Spring has just been flushed down the crapper.
