Order on Applying for Graduation - TESU

[dfrecore]

In my years at TESU the only department that handled tuition is the bursar, so I would not have even asked the question elsewhere. But if the bursar gave conflicting info, then yeah, that would be a problem.

Since I've never paid tuition here, and never applied for graduation before now, there's no way I would know that I couldn't ask an advisor about that. The bursar may "handle tuition" but that certainly wouldn't mean that others wouldn't know what was going on. AND, if I asked a question, and the person didn't know the answer, the best answer at that point would be "let me send you to the bursar's office, they handle those types of issues." Instead, they answer the question themselves.

And speaking of, how do you work at a school, where I'm sure you get asked this question all of the time, and NOT know the answer?? I mean, I'm pretty sure it would take a 30-second call to the bursar's office yourself to find out the answer, since the advisors DO know that the bursar is the one that answers these types of questions.

When I worked, I didn't just make crap up. I actually went to the correct person and ASKED them so I would know the right answer going forward!!
