Oh Rohag I so agree.

Dear Rebecca. The fact that you are dealing with this school admin. and all the registration stuff at all is mind blowing to me.
Two years ago I registered for one lonely class (chemistry) at the Uni where my partner was studying. The stress was almost intolerable. Back and forth in e-mails with professors and heads of departments, back and forth to like eight different offices, people who did not communicate with one another... all of it. So I really know where you are coming from. These people seem almost malicious!
Just keep pushing through dear one.
You deserve to be there and you deserve to finish your degree.
Keep in mind they'd most likely be reacting the same way to someone suffering from cancer or any other illness, as I have seen this happen.
With all of your stregth I urge you to make an appointment to speak with the Dean of your school. Tell them everything. You are trying your very best with all of the resources you have. Explain that you understand that rules are there for a reason, but you are not trying to break them, simply making the best out of an extremely difficult situation.
We will all be there with you, looking like this:

Thanks for this!
