Stressed

I checked my school email yesterday and realized there was a form to fill out for my clinical site. The email said it was due on the third. I filled it out and sent it right back explaining that I'd just seen it. I got an email back saying she'd received it and then a call saying she doesn't know if the hospital will accept the form. If they don't she says I can't take the class for this semester and should apply for readmission into the program. They only let you do that once and I've already done it. So basically she's telling me I'd be out of the program. I tried to point out that it didn't make sense to kick me out of the program for one emailed form that I didn't see until the 12th. She gave me the whole you have to check your email every other day because we might send you something important lecture...the important stuff seems to get buried in with the junk mail they send. On the upside I should know by the end of the day if the hospital accepted the form.

If not I'm going to call the someone higher up and see if I just miss a day or two of clinicals...which is allowed in the timeframe and would give the hospital more time to process this one form. There are also opening at other clinical sites and I might see if they can't just move me to one of those. Either way I'm not giving up on this. I'm not getting dropped from their program because I didn't see one email with one form.

I also made an appointment with financial aide for Wed. I have a bit of paperwork to get together, but I think that'll at least run smoothly.

That took all day...

but the hospital said okay so I'm fine.
