  12. Do you think this was rude?

    Hoping2BeStudent2010 replied to Ms. Nurse Assistant's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I don't think it was necessarily "rude", that's probably the policy. Granted, one stamp isn't going to bankrupt the school...but if they did that for everyone who needed a transcript sent off, it...
