finally talked with the Director of the MA program at my college

Well, I got a letter the other day saying all of a sudden that mas 134 orientation to medical assisting was canceled and I was supposed to take it this fall! I tried getting a hold of various people at the college but of course now when i really needed to talk to someone their on vacation. The director and I missed each others calls a few times but I finally spoke to her earlier. The Director said that she would just exempt me fro taking 134 and put me in 234 but I hope I will not be missing much. Anyways I have to meet hopefully with someone in advisement Tuesday to try and see if this works or not with the scheduling (having to take certain classes before others etc.)Also,although it would be 1 less class, im afraid this will make me drop down to part time sooner than I expected in future semesters. See I have a scholarship which is for fulltime...so I wish there was a way I could graduate in 3 semesters instead of 4 but we will have to see how it looks on Tuesday. Wish me luck!!! I feel like I shouldnt have to even be worrying about this.

I am glad to hear you were able to get it exempted. For the semester you might be part time, can your advisor help you find a related elective to bring you up to full time?
