Exactly! The 72hr turnaround has not changed, it just isn't being enforced. It baffles me how several people just shrug this off because the YourPace tuition is relatively cheap, or make excuses for certain professors being "so busy" lol. UMPI is failing students in a very important aspect of the program. The coursework itself is absolutely easy enough to complete 10-12 classes in one term or even half a term. 

14 days and counting...

I agree that they should reverse the policy and be more transparent. No issues with that.

UMPI is a state school that took education which used to be 4+ years and thousands and thousands of dollars and narrowed it down to pennies and 4 months or less of work. From life experience, I have learned to not bite the hand that feeds or makes waves over relatively inconsequential things (like getting an entire BA in a month or two). I don't think sending emails over and over is helpful, they didn't forget. I imagine bright space and higher online enrollment numbers into certain majors having a backlog at a college that is little bigger than a high school.

If certain majors and profs are overburdened, they should do enrollment quotas each term. This is no different than many college programs. I think that's reasonable. Maybe they bit off more than they can chew given the insanely quick route to degree completion and minimal cost required. Regardless, being transparent is better than silence. I imagine if they put caps on admission, people would then bitch about that.

There is always the option to transfer if you can find a school that's quicker.
