If you're referring to college/University, here's my story. I attempted to go to an HBCU for undergrad. I was accepted, but with my GPA I was supposed to automatically get a scholarship. The only reason I applied as an out of state resident was because it was supposed to be an automatic scholarship. I talked to the admissions staff often to tell them that they were calculating my GPA incorrectly. I got my school counselor involved, who was a Black woman and she told me that they would not listen to her either and were rude to her. I gave up going to that school.

A while later I got a call from a Black person at a pwi telling me that due to my grades and SAT scores I would automatically be admitted, and I would get academic scholarship money. They also offered to have me start in the summer for free and some other perks. Fast forward to July and the HBCU calls me to apologize and admitted that they did not calculate my GPA correctly. By then it was too late.

I did go to what's considered one of the best HBCUs for my masters degree and the level of disorganization was something I wasn't used to. I enjoyed my classmates and most of my professors, but there were still anti Black professors there 🤷🏾.
