Dear FSA Undergraduate Students at UNL,

I received the bills for your tuition today. They were considerably more than
what was expected. After checking the figures I determined the reason.
According to our agreement with the University of Nebraska, Lincoln, and the credit
letters that you signed in Washington, the maximum number of credits that you
were allowed to take was 12 credits. Each of you took either 14 or 15 credits,
and according to the credit letters that you signed you are responsible for the
extra fees associated with the extra credits that you are taking.

 Drop the excess classes, that's the most reasonable way.

Btw, is it ok that I intruded this message? Isn't it your personal again?..

 Hello!

I am sorry if I sounded rude in the other messages. This is not personal, not THAT personal, so anyone can comment, and post replies. You can do it to the other topics too
And I think it is unfair. We have been told that we must not take LESS than 12. Nothing was said about MORE credits. But we'll survive
I am in University of Nebraska, Lincoln - great place to be, especially when you are pennyless...

 Dorina, drop minor classes you consider unimportant and don't overload yourself next semester. Good Luck.

 I think it's too late to drop any classes now, when the Midterm session is over and not much time till Christmas is left.
If ACCELS plays such tricks with you, you need help. After all, it's impossible to pay 30 bucks per lesson!!! These people are going nuts! Poor jokers...
So - what if the inhabitants of our portal help you, writing e-mail letters of support and disgust to the ACCELS office? Maybe massive support and condemnation of unjust treatment would improve the state of things?
And petrify those bad guys?

Well - anyway, almost all of us waste a lot of time here in forum and chat posting fascinating stories as well as absolute nonsense. So - why not help our pals?

 You are real friends. Thank you for your support. I just thought to wait what happens... Maybe they WILL change their minds, cause as far as I know we are not the only ones with 15 credits...
