Very frustrating experience with advisor

Requested transfer from Competency Based Education system to Online System Management major to re-enroll, waited about 20 days, advisor put me in Business Administration, 50 or so credits don't apply!

Email was:

"I would like to schedule an appointment or be connected with an academic advisor to discuss my options before re-enrolling.

Specifically, I would like to review:

Whether I should remain in my current BA in Management program or switch to another concentration.

A comparison between my current concentration, Organizational Leadership, and Military History, to determine which option would make the best use for my career.

My remaining transfer credit options through providers such as Study.com. I'm trying to fully rely on these for the rest of the courses and take no courses at SNHU. I want to know if that's possible. "

I emailed my advisor and expressed how this is crazy because I don't want to lose 2 years' worth of study. She didn't have my best interest in mind when she did this. She basically said they don't have Management. I'm not sure how that makes her eligible to make the choice on my behalf. I called and requested a change of advisor and inquired about the"What if" function which was useless in my case. Does this happen often? What should I do to make sure I get the best result?

At risk of failing because my 4th assignment got accused of AI.

4 assignments in this class I have received 0s on because it “seems like AI”

I explained to my professor my writing processes and how I will use AI as a tool to make sure I’m hitting everything on the rubric or to help me format things better, but the writing is all mine. I will sometimes use a suggestion AI gives me on improvement, but I do not just copy and paste it, I take its advice and write everything in my own words.

I asked my professor if there is anything I can do about the grades and they told me no, so I asked my advisor and they said the best thing I can do is to file a dispute as I have already done.

I’m just wondering if anyone has ever dealt with something like this before and how it was resolved. Thank you.

Fantastic feedback

I'm so glad you took the time to give a thorough review of my capstone project which took me no less than 300 hours to complete. This is the same teacher that gave me a zero (when the codebase clearly showed me exceeding the plan *that I made*) and called out my (single) grammar mistake, yet has not capitalized one sentence this term (minus the ones that GPT wrote for her).

I can 100% positively guarantee that she did not even download or run the app once over the course of this class (because if she did she would have noticed that the XGBoost algorithm is still distinctly broken).

Whatever. I made it. No thanks to you, "professor."

- Signed, Thank Fucking God That's Over.

Turn it in

I just got a 0% turn it in score on a 7 page speech. I didn’t even know that was possible since it always seems to highlight little strings of commonly used words 😂

Woohoo, i guess 🥳

Legacy Provisions for Grad Students

Has anyone here qualified for the exemption from the OBBA financial aid slashes? Grad degrees preferred but undergrad welcome to comment too!

I believe I qualify but SNHU is saying I don't. Trying to determine if any other students have been given this exemption

Sorry if this should be posted in a thread somewhere in this subreddit

SNHU or Purdue Global?

I am going for bachelor’s in Communications with a concentration in Public Relations, but am stuck between Purdue Global or SNHU. I’ve done my fair share of research amongst the two online and right now, I’m leaning towards SNHU because it seems like SNHU is more popular for communication students. But are there any students on this reddit that has or currently going through Communications at SNHU or Purdue that can help me decide? SNHU is a top contender at this point and maybe hearing your thoughts will help guide me to SNHU

The main things I am looking for is how are the courses information and the assignments? I know its going to be extensive in writing, which is fine with me, but are the courses packed with information that will actually help me?

When is an appropriate time to take graduation photos?

I’m thinking about doing a graduation photoshoot for my graduation this upcoming November. Would late September/early October be too early to do the photos? Have any of you done this? When did you do yours? It feels weird doing some stuff preemptively. I know I’m going to graduate but sometimes I feel nervous that something could happen lol

What’s the grade dispute process like?

Hey guys,
I’m at the end of my course and I feel like after it’s all over I’m gonna end the course with an A- hopefully.

Now I have a discussion in week one where I was accused of AI, my advisor when I spoke to her about disputing she said wait for the end you might finish with an A and don’t bother with the headache as it won’t be needed. This professor has been extremely difficult and harsh.

I feel if I dispute that first grade and get those 25 points back it will bump be up to an A

My question is what’s the process like? What evidence do you need to provide?

It’s a casual week one discussion not an essay so I wrote it off the cuff I don’t have like a Google Docs thing that tracked my process, and I think the professor understood it wasn’t AI because he never accused me of AI again for the rest of the 7 modules after that. But he didn’t change the grade out of ego he has a big ego thing.

Gave me a B on my last project which was worth 350 points due to a small correction that needed to be made. I fixed it and sent a nice email. His response was just take my feedback and do better in your next courses.

I’ve had other professors that loved you wanting to correct and do better.

Anyway this course has been anxiety for 2 months.

Any advice is appreciated, thank you guys so much for taking the time to read and reply.

I wish you all the best with your degrees, I have hopefully 2 or 3 terms left so like 4 or 5 courses something like that and I’ll be done. I used to say I want to enjoy this process of education. My last few professors really made me feel I can’t wait for this to be over.

Classes while working

Has anyone tried taking 2 classes per term while also working full time 40 hours a week?

For context I also have a child that is in kindergarten.

Is it doable or will I risk falling behind on my classes?

I just don’t want to take 6 years to finish my bachelor’s degree.

Done with INT 220 and BUS 225.

What a semester!! So glad it’s done. Two research heavy courses almost broke me but I’m glad I persisted the later part of the semester was not as bad as I thought and now I get a nice little break before next term.

Week5-7 work

With this week being the last of the terms for undergraduates, am I allowed to still submit week 5-7 work? I was in and out of the hospital and got behind for week 5-7. I have asked for an incomplete, but the professor will not do that. I don’t want to do the work if it won’t matter but I really don’t want an unearned F.

Not doing assignments

I have a 677.3 and still need an discussion graded for my psy 260 class. I did not do a project last week and this is the last week and don't want to do the last finale project or eportfolio. As long as I'm above the 600 nothing will happen? Like I still pass the class? I'm just burnt out from it. It's a statistics class. So if i don't do 3 assignments but still have enough to pass I am all good?

Are Surveys Really Anonymous?

So, it’s survey time again. I, very rightly, voiced concerns about the grading and the feedback. Now I’m receiving lower grades and zero feedback, as opposed to feedback highlighting whatever mistake I had made, which is what I wanted. Are the surveys truly anonymous?

Escalate to advisor?

I recently received interesting feedback on my final paper. In a milestone assignment I lost points for using multiple human services roles and was told I was supposed to use one. The instructions used the word roles. So I messaged the professor and was told I missed instructions in the announcement and the grade would remain but I could adjust it in the final. Once I completed the final I lost points for not expanding on other roles in the agency for the same section. Is this worth escalating? I do have all screenshots and email exchanges. Does anyone have any experience with discussing something like this with an advisor? Is it worth the time?
