HELP! WGU All Staff Meeting Oct 26-30 (CIs and mentors out of office)! What happens when you're trying to graduate by 10/31??

I've been 100% focused on school for 2.5 months straight and trying to graduate by October 31st, 2026 (in 24 days). I have 6 classes left, so it's TIGHT. My hope was to request a 1-month extension for the capstone, so right now I just need to get through 5 courses and hopefully get the capstone extension approved.

I just found out that the WGU All Staff Meeting is 10/26-10/30. CIs and mentors will be out of office. The way the weekends fall, my mentor will be out of the office 10/24 - 11/1. This is the entire last week of my last term.

I have 3 OA courses left and 3 PA courses left (including the PA capstone). The All Staff Meeting means if I fail an OA, there would be no CIs around to give me a retake plan. If I submit a task that needs revision, it seems like I may not be made aware of whether I passed until the next term has started, with no opportunity for revisions?

I'm kind of panicking because I did feel like 5 courses in 24 days was (barely) doable. But if I have to have everything in *a week* early, that makes a huge difference.

Has anyone else dealt with this on the All Staff week in particular? Is there any grace given, since it's out of students' hands and I didn't even know about this meeting until 2 weeks beforehand? Or is it a SOL situation?

Sorry if Im rambling, I'm really sad and worried about this.

ETA 1: I have reached out to my mentor, but she's left for the evening. I've completed 15 courses in the past 2.5 months, so this idea that I could miss it by a week really hurts my heart, lol.

ETA 2: I'm in the Bachelor of Science in Business Management program

Questions for Traveling X-ray Techs with Cats (or Pets)

Do traveling x-ray techs generally not have pets? Or do you leave pets home with family for months at a time? Is it hard to find temporary housing on assignment that allows pets? Is it hard to find temporary housing that enables a tech's partner or spouse to stay there with their pet?

What's your experience, or what experiences have you heard from other techs and how they've managed this?

(Sorry if this has been covered before. It's hard to search this subreddit for this topic, since PET and CAT are scans, lol)

Are we better together as friends, or are friendships smoother with NTs and other types of NDs?

Are AuDHD female friendships easier for you to manage and maintain? Or are we more high-maintenance together, lol? What have your friendships been like with other AuDHD women?

I feel like in some ways, AuDHD women may be the only people who will ever truly understand me and my bizarre life experience. But I've never had any female friends who firmly self-identify as AuDHD and none who are officially diagnosed. Would love to hear your thoughts and experiences!
