I took 3 online courses this semester that had nothing to do with the college i am attending now and before i took the online courses the college specifically stated to check with the college you intend to transfer the credits to make sure they will transfers. So I met with Bill the person in charge of transferring credits. He assured that the school was OK to take the courses. He looked at the colleges website and he also looked in the college accreditation book to make sure the college was accredited he told me he found in the book n that i was ok and he also compared the courses description with my colleges description ( mind You i met with him 3 different occasions because i have 3 different courses just to make sure and every time he said i was OK ) ……..now it time to graduate and come to find out he looked at the wrong college in the College Accreditation Book and my credits will not transfer because the school is not accredited …………..What Legal Action Can Take? ……………………… altogether i spent $1,754.64. ……………..So Shouldn’t i be compensated MORE money for my time, my hard work, my pain n suffering and not being able to transfer to another college to start the nursing program because of his misguidance and his mistake ?
( this pushes me a year back in school) Or is there anyway they can transfer these credits?
PLEASE HELP ………………….Thanks for your answers in advance. Sorry So Long ~Nikki~
Legal action will not get you anywhere other than delay your graduation, cost you money, and further frustrate you. Resolutions would take years to accomplish, and likely not be in your favor anyway as you need written proof which you don’t have. On top of that, during the interim there may be new requirements added on to your program, to which you’ll have to take! I suggest you chalk over the bad experience and move on by taking the three courses. When you graduate, consider egging this Bill person’s home or office to release some steam.
