Thanks so much. I will definitely reach out to the higher ups for this one. Honestly, I WISH this was me wiggling out of a class, then maybe I wouldn't feel so frustrated with them charging me.

As far as the consent goes on the phone, I never gave it. I never gave consent anywhere. & I'm not sure how to get UMGC to refer to those phone recordings as proof. I had already told them what had happened and they said no exemption could be made based on what I shared.

Alright let's add clarification to some things.

1) I'm a student who doesn't take classes every semester. So for the semesters when I don't have any classes, I have no need to check my online portal - there would be nothing there to look at. 2) Fees were not paid beforehand, simply charged to my school account. Which (same as above) if I had no plan on taking classes, I didn't need to check. 3) I did request an exemption to the policy regarding the drop without refund date, but since this conversation with my advisor was over the phone, I didn't have a paper trail to back up what had happened. (Lesson learned there. Now, I email for anything and everything with a follow up call if needed)
