I know in a few instances, the staff has chosen not to lock a thread that the OP requested because it was clear that the OP was doing it because he was being proven wrong/disagreed with.

In other cases, like with Roman's thread, it was done because the thread had simply become a place to fling jokes and such, with no clear topic of discussion. It really is a case by case basis.

Her face looks 12

Maybe just take this semester off and wait until the next one to re-apply at your old university in New York?

My problem with waiting a semester off is that I need to begin paying on my student loans - at least if I go part time at a community school, it can put my loans in deferment.

Hmmm yeah so maybe just bide your time at a community college in NY for this semester. Sounds like staying in Florida isn't in your best interests. I assume your family still lives in NY? Always good to stay near them for support if it comes to that

Most of my family lives here, yeah. I've got a couple relatives in the Miami area, but nothing near Orlando.

I'm probably going to regret this thread, but yeah. Backstory is in the quote before. Please read it before commenting answers to my questions at the bottom. It's long, I'll try and do a Tl;Dr. Ktnx

SO

When I was in Florida during the first half of this year for my time working for Disney, I made the decision (along with one of my roommates) to transfer to the University of Central Florida, get an apartment together, and all that jazz. All the while, I was still technically enrolled at my old school back here in New York on a leave of absence, with all intentions (from their point of view) of me returning this Fall.

In April of this year, I was accepted to UCF for the major of my choice. This gave me roughly two weeks to make a choice of going home or remaining in Florida after August, as my old school needed a decision by May 1st as to whether I would be returning. If I did not respond or outright told them I would not be coming back, I would be unenrolled for the fall. I kept flip flopping on my decision until the very last day, when I simply did not contact my old school - mostly because I was still torn on what would be better. Not that it mattered anymore, but yeah.

With the decision (unfortunately) made, we proceeded with the UCF process, toured the campus, and all that jazz. It wasn't until late-June, after paying for the orientation fee, that I realized a huge problem - my credits weren't transferring, even though both were public, 4-year institutions. Out of my 43 credits, I would get 16 in the new school, on top of taking a whole new batch of General Electives that I didn't need back here in New York. So on top of paying double my old tuition, I would essentially be falling backwards in terms of my education standing. My roommate had it even worse - only 9 of his credits would transfer. We both decided this wouldn't work for us, decided to return to our individual homes and finish there.

He was reaccepted to his school rather quickly. Problem for me, my school is not so forgiving. I returned home this past August and filled out a readmission application for this upcoming spring semester -  basically asking for the school to let me back in for my major. The application was sent in this past September, and I also called in to speak to the Assistant Dean in charge of them - I was told there is no deadline as to when we'd here back on our application, there is no way to check on the status, and that we receive information through postal mail (No Email).

So I've waited. And waited. And now, students at the school are registering for classes and I have no idea when, or if, I'll hear. Even if I do get in, I'm going to fall another semester behind because I won't get any of the classes I need to further my major. So, I'm kind of torn between a couple choices...

Should I...

1 - Bide it out with my old school and hope to hear back soon, even if it means falling behind in my current major/having to change

2 - Apply elsewhere (UCF or another school) for the Fall 2016 Semester, potentially pairing it with a semester at a community college this spring.

3 - Other (Advice pls)
