WHY ARE PEOPLE SO SLOW!?!?!?!?!
So I recently got my scholarships reevaluated for school and it turns out that I had a scholarship they never gave me so that means that over the past three bills I've paid $1500 too much. So Mizzou said they'd send me a check to refund it.
This was like four weeks ago. AND! to add more fuel to the fire, the undergrad research I got accepted into covers up to $1400 for the cost of my laptop, which mine happen to cost exactly $1398.43 lol. So I was suppose to get a check for that as well, but have still yet to see either of the two. I WANT MY MONEY!!! Right now on corral there is like three HP and Turbonetics turbo kits that I COULD have the money to buy, but to avail I can't get my freaking checks. FML. lol. I got myself so excited and now my impatience is beginning to show. /end rant (for now) |
sounds like my school... except theyve became even slower by outsourcing the checks to "higher one" which will let u get money fast or slow, depends on what u want, if want ur money fast, it scamms u and charges u tons of money, and if u want it slow, it takes months. And i got a scholarship and instead of paying for my added bi-term, they sent me a check i had to wait for to pay and almost lost my bi-term. People are very slow!
|
Jeez, cry some more why don't cha. I'm waiting for huge checks to come in the mail too, except mine are never gonna come, meaning they dont exsist. lol. And I need money for school not parts for my car, excuse me while i slit my wrists because your checks haven't come.:D

Keep calling and pestering. They'll speed up the process just to get you out of their hair.
|
^ or slow it down even more if they are Dicks.
|
Just keep on them in a respectful, but firm way. Universities are just like government, it takes them a while to do stuff for whatever reason. There might be 3 or 4 layers it has to go through before being approved so just try to keep it moving through the process.

But, they keep on telling me it'll just be a few more days, and then two weeks later still nothing. I'm not saying that I alone deserve better service, because I work in retail I know how fucked up stuff can be to get through a system of networks. But don't tell me that it'll be a few days, just tell me it'll take a month or so and I'd be fine with it. I talked to the lady today and she said that I might get my computer refund check in a few days, but as for the loan return I still might not see it for a few more weeks lol. She was nice about it though and apologized for the wait. But hopefully this won't keep persisting. I may graduate before the check ever comes in lol |
Its a sad fact but thats the way of the world anymore.
|
My stuff would not show up till a month or two into the classes every time. I had to pay out of pocket then I would get the money later on.
|
Yup, I got a foot in that very same boat. They just everyone said, they take a while. They want what is owed them ASAP, and when they ower you something it is by grace of God that you get it in a timely manner.
Edit: What kind of research are you doing? I have to present some findings to my professors about a short term fungal competetion study today, yay. |
Are you guys getting your masters degree's or is this undergrad?
I've only been out 1 year and I think, depending on what happens with this job I am trying to get, I will get my masters. |

The research is a group of the Heads of colleges from all over campus and then 7 of us as the actual researchers. It's pretty cool having the top people in the school being the ones who run your research. My major is Pre-Med and Biochemistry so this fits in just right. Later on when I get closer to my masters I will stay underneath the same people for my research then. |
lol i used to never buy my books for college and at the end of the semester id get a check for 700 bucks all the books are online these days
|
Mine is undergrad also. I have been entertaining the thought of getting a masters. I would really like to have the chance to pursue it but don't want to unless i need it or would directly benefit me (but how could it not?).
|
I graduate with my bachelors in May, but I'm tempted to go for either my Masters or PhD in Finance.

So now they're pretty damn easy to get. I love my research, and the extra cash for just basically doing tests all the time. |
My buddy is working on his masters in electrical mechanical engineering and he says its no harder then undergrad at all. And I didn't think undergrad was very hard. If you did some work and studied you can do well. That's how I did it.
