I don't even know her name, but she is my hero

I called the Bursar’s Office (translation: business office) at Southern earlier this afternoon. The lady I talked to was really helpful. She said they were going to drop me today unless I either paid in full or set up a payment plan. I told her there was no way I could afford the first payment at the moment, so she told me to drop the class and call her back right away so she could credit the $75 I already put down back onto my credit card.

So I have to wait until the fall (as long as I get financial aid) to start, but at least I get my money back.

I’m just amazed at how little time they give students to pay. I mean, it’s only March and the class doesn’t start until June 1st!

I’m a little disappointed that I can’t start as soon as I wanted to, but this is the least of my problems right now. I’m just relieved I’m not beat out of $75.

  4. @Ted: I have no idea what I’m going to do with myself between now and the fall!

    @Nikki: I know, right? It’s so much less intimate than NVCC was. I’m really glad that lady took pity on me, ha ha ha.
