University of the People transfer/graduation issue
#1
Just for fun, I took some classes at University of the people, for their associate in computer science program.

I decided to transfer in my other credits to finish out the degree, and lo and behold, I only needed one final class to finish the program. After taking this final class, I applied for graduation.

This past week, I received an email from my "advisor" stating that they had made a mistake and that they had transferred in 16 credits, when only 15 are allowed and that they will be refunding a transfer class of my choice and that i will need to take another class to finish the program. 

Doesn't this come across really weird? Like how is it my fault that they incorrectly assigned transfer credit?

This degree program isn't super important to me, but it would be nice to finish it out and not take additional classes with UoP, as it is not the best experience, imo

Hmm, it really depends on the person and what they have as an educational goal, they're tuition free at UOP, so there should be just one extra fee for evaluation of the final class. If that one class you take is something you're really interested in, I would bite the bullet and pay for the class to finish off the degree. If the final class is something you're not at all interested in, then skip it.
