Business ProfileforPalm Beach State College

I graduated PBSC 2013 ; I decided to go back now more than 10 years later so I can take a course to get a job . I added the class in fall of 2021, due to the pandemic as we are still aware of , I was transitioning to a new job and moving out of the apartment I couldn't afford at the time the last thing on my mind was dropping the course because in my previous years in pbsc and also at UCF , if you don't attend the class the teacher will withdraw you and that's it . Especially when you didn't pay which I didn't . Now that I can afford going back to school I decided to try to class out and add it on my schedule which now the have a whole new system . It's says I owe 300 dollars for the class I never attended . They said it's now the student responsibility to drop classes . I'm sorry but when your going thru actually life problems the last thing on my mind is to drop a class especially during a pandemic . They said I have to pay it back . So I said I'll pay it if I can attend the class they said I can't since the teacher withdrew me . At this point I won't attend rhag college anymore . It's unfair especially when you were not aware of this change .
