you think it would be simpler to say this:

Hi Karen, I just finished evaluating your transcripts. It looks like you would come in to the English Department M.A. program as Conditionally Classified or as a Classified student (Both allow you in to the Engl. program). This would depend on your last 60 unit GPA. Your upper division English course GPA is 3.73 which would waive you from the GRE if your last 60 units was a 3.0. You have passed the Upper Division Writing Proficiency Exam, so this requirement has been met. This is an Unofficial Evaluation due to not having the 1295 form from Admissions and records, they evaluate your courses and let us know what your last 60 unit GPA would be. In order to be in the program your last 60 units must be a 2.5 or higher. In order to waive the GRE requirement (which would give you classified status) your last 60 units needs to be a 3.0 or higher and your upper division Engl. courses need to be a 3.6 or higher, you currently have a 3.73. Looking at your transcripts your last 60 units looks o.k., but I am not sure until the calculations are done by Admissions and Records and when Dr. Stanley, the Graduate Advisor has approved everything. I saw that you have a number of U's which eventually turn in to F's and may effect your GPA. This was during your first few semesters, so I am not sure if it will effect the GPA that we will be looking at (we look at your last 60 units). I looked at your last 60 units and did not see the U's in the last sixty units. I can not give you official status until I receive your 1295 form. I think that you will be o.k. You can go ahead and register for the courses so that you save a space for yourself, if things change you can always drop them. But I do not think you will have to. We should know your official status with in a few days.

That is the worst-written thing I have read in ages. WTF? At least it sounds like good news!

eh...it's nothing i didn't already know. the graduate advisor also emailed me and told me she can give me no official go-ahead til my file is complete. not that it matters cuz i haven't officially graduated yet! another tidbit of information the school didn't see fit to tell me. long story. but the end result is that i don't know when i'll be able to register, and just might be screwed out of school for this coming semester.

and did i mention they took away my financial aid for no good reason?

Wow, no, you didn't mention that they took away your financial aid for no reason! Wow, that is the worst. I'm sorry!

Sounds like they're giving you the same treatment I got at CU. They told me a few weeks before graduation that oh, by the way, according to their records, I was a few credits short so I couldn't graduate. It's such a long story but I would never give them any more of my money, whether I decided I wanted to go back to school or had offspring who wanted to go there. I REFUSE. They totally screwed me and I hate them.

What I want to know is, exactly how long does it take to review a Stafford loan form? All that's on there is my name, SS#, and signature. It ain't that complicated. SO Karen, if you don't get to register, what will you do with yourself for the spring?
