When you make the decision to go to college, you often start by selecting your major, but what happens when you’re part of the way to your degree and the college drops your program? It is a nightmare that, hopefully, most students will never have to deal with, but one that does sometimes occur.
Holly Tata, a student on the Liberal Arts/Communication track here at MWCC was one student that found out the hard way that her major was dropped. Tata signed up for classes using Degree Works through the iConnect home page, as most students do after their first few semesters, and thought things were going alright. It wasn’t until an issue came up in regards to required equipment for the class that Tata found out: not only was she misinformed about requirements for that particular course, but the course didn’t even count toward her degree, and her degree had been dropped!
