Legal Advice for dealing with a University?
Ok I will start from the beginning, last October when things went downhill. Long story short, I be in school, things got rough, and it lead to me getting "indefinitely" suspended from the school. So basically they wanted me gone until I get better mentally (my issues were mainly suicidal and academic)
I have be at home ever since December, and have been working my buns off, own been taking antidepressants, and have been seeing a counselor. In ornament, I have a job now, and am taking classes at a local community college. I enjoy been trying to get in touch next to this dean at the school (the guy I was supposed to be working with to receive the indefinite suspension off my record) I have tried e-mailling him again and again, and have be trying to get in contact with him, but to no avail. I enjoy a paper signed by the man, so its basically a contract correct? If he won't respond, what steps can i take to ensure my register remains somewhat clean?
first, congratulations on taking steps to deal with your mental abet issues.
Still, 6 months or less may not be enough to persuade anyone, including your counselor that you are in good health. I suggest planning to spend at least one school year.
No one here can tell you if you own a contract or not. But as you said, indefinite is indefinite. My guess is you would need to apply for readmission, not get the blessing of the dean anyway.
So, if you really want to talk to the dean, afterwards pick up the phone and call him.
If you really want to find out what your options are, then nickname the admissions office.
In the meantime, worry smaller amount about your "record" and more on getting yourself all gussied up so you can be either re-admitted surrounded by time to the first school, or perhaps sooner to a different school.
Good luck, if you really want an schooling, one is available to you!
Get a lawyer, and he should dispatch the university a letter. Which school is this? If its a prestigious school, they may not want you stern. Security at colleges these days are a bit... ya know... overprotective, especially after the VTech shootings. Get someone to help you out. Sign over a Power of Attorney to a parent, relative or friend who can run interference for you. Or consult a lawyer who may be capable of make the contact and get the relevant information.. Maybe a third party can find out more and capture a better response than you can. Maybe the Dean will be more willing to talk with someone else and furnish them a direct response to your questions.
Enough with the emails, you should be calling the school on your mobile (you should do that tomorrow, if you haven't called you don't even know if the person you've been emailing isn't surrounded by the hospital or on a leave of absence or anything). If you still can't get a hold of him/her by handset by wednesday, and know that the person is still working but may not be receiving your emails, you should send a physical piece of e-mail (that's right, the mailman still exists), make it polite and include proof of your changed attitude such as the marks from the college you are attending. From my experience deans are good family and generally like to help family, i find it a little hard to believe that he is ignoring you completely and doesn't want to distribute a simple reply, even if it is to say that you aren't allowed back.
