They can't FORCE you to register/pay for any course that you don't want to pay for.

Yeah, I know what you mean! I'm still upset about that stupid/expensive course.

But even with that course, you could choose to fulfill it via an alternative course if you can locate one.

What UoP did to Akay was to actually go ahead and register him for the courses without his prior approval. That was WAY out of line! I would have been "p*ssed off at UoP" too.

Of course, mistakes like that can happen anywhere. My friend was told by Excelsior that he needed three more credits to graduate. He registered and paid for a course before he realized that they had made a mistake. He contacted them and, sure enough, they had made an error with his transfer credits. He already had enough credits to graduate.

Thankfully, Excelsior reimbursed him for the registration fee (even though it was at a different university), and waived his graduation fee entirely.

All's well that ends well! Big Grin
