<p>So to my knowledge, I graduated this past summer and apparently I need ONE spanish class in order to be done with get my bachelors. I just found this out when I got word from an employer about the education on my resume being wrong. I was in shock. My advisor said I was in the good the last time I spoke with her. This isn't the first time being screwed over either. </p>
<p>Before being admitted, I had been applying for roughly a year and a half and getting rejection letterss because I hadn't satisfied some of the writing and math requirements for transfers. Come to find out, the admissions office didn't realize that they were looking at 2 of the same semester class transcripts from Fall Semester and I had completed the writing and math in the Spring Semester. So basically I was spending money at a community college for classes they told me I needed to be admitted and all along I had already satisfied the requirements.</p>
<p>So I am pretty much wondering do I have any leverage when I go in and talk to them about this spanish class? Initially, I didn't even care about the first screw up as I eventually was admitted but now I am furious because they screwed up again. I probably spent an extra $3000 that I didn't need to before being admitted. What should I do?</p>
<p>Usually, you have to ‘apply’ for graduation and they review all requirements and make sure you have completed them. Then you get a diploma. </p>
<p>I have a friend who finished school 30 years ago. She is also one Spanish class short. Her university required the final 30 credits to be taken on campus, so she can’t just take it online (not that they had that option 30 years ago). My sister went to this same school and studied abroad her junior year, then wanted to graduate a semester early. Cause a big problem because of the ‘on campus’ rule, but they did allow it AFTER she applied for her diploma. </p>
<p>yeah, i applied to graduate in the fall of 2012 and was set to graduate this past summer with no problems. </p>
<p>and yeah, I would have to take that 4 credit spanish class on campus as well… which would be the absolute worst since I am about three hours away.</p>
<p>Take all your paperwork, including the response to your request to graduate, to the registrar and the Dean of Students and find out exactly what’s going on. Yes, you do have to do this in person.</p>
<p>Ignore the earlier “mistakes” as those were made by the Admissions Office, not the registrar - two completely different entities.</p>
