Note to Self: Assume Nothing
Posted by Karoli in Education, Parenting July 30th, 2007
I have spent all morning straightening out what I thought was completely done with regard to Sticks’ college entrance. Since fees are due today, I figured I’d better check on his account and make sure the enrolllment paperwork that he did earlier this month was complete and that he had a zero balance.
When I checked the portal, he still had a balance due and a note saying his final transcript hadn’t been received. Since I personally requested that back in June, I was confused. After sixteen phone calls and another zillion emails, we have another transcript on its way and are working on trying to figure out why the scholarship isn’t showing. On the other hand, I still don’t see the classes he registered for when he went for his advisement showing, which is a worry.
The moral: Assume something will need to be fixed before you know it’s broken. What a monumental pain.
