I am at the moment frustrated and annoyed with the advising process. I sent an email 2 weeks ago to the department chair of Psychology, and have yet to receive a response. I declared my major, and it took about a week and a half to get that approved, but once that happened, I was […]
Yesterday I emailed my advisor, thinking that she would certainly get back to me sometime today. The day passed, and no email from my advisor. I wouldn’t be this concerned with getting in touch with my advisor, except I need for her to retrieve my record and send me an email and tell me the […]
I still have not heard back from a department chair (or the online programs coordinator), but today I was finally admitted to the department of psychology and assigned an official advisor. Just in time it would seem, because I am starting to wonder if the transfer advisor that has been assisting me up to this […]

Art Appreciation (ART111) is a SURVEY of ART, but covers almost no Art history, therefore, it SHOULD ALWAYS be transferred as “Survey of Art” not as […]
Yesterday, a Saturday, the responsible parties (not sure exactly who) at Fayetteville State University, evaluated my transcripts and transferred 102 credit hours, more than I expected (expected about 87 – 89). Only 9 of my courses (27 hours) were transferred as actual courses (rest were “Free Elective”). The transfer was not conducted in accordance with […]
At Fayetteville I was going to fill out a form to substitute their “Intro to Communication” requirement for the “Interpersonal Communication” that I already have and I wanted to make sure that I wasn’t out of line in requesting the adaptation, so I did a Google. I came back with this blog: http://suburbdad.blogspot.com/2006/04/substitutions-from-space.html What could […]
I have received an acceptance letter from Fayetteville State University, but I am now waiting for my prospective department (Psychology) to accept me and allow me to declare my program. No credits have been evaluated yet, but the advisor in the Transfer and Advisement center is attempting to put a little pressure on the admissions […]
