I've had one heck of a fiasco enrolling at newcastle college, and it's all been documented on these forums.

Anyway, I enrolled in an intensive A level business studies, and GCSE maths (yeah, I failed it all those years ago, finally getting around to redoing it)

But I also wanted to do media, and when I enrolled on that I was told it was Monday to Friday, 9 till 4, meaning I can't do the other courses (except maybe maths, because I think I might get Wednesday afternoons off, which is when maths is)

Fair enough I say, as media is more important to me. But today I get a letter through the door saying that the business course has been cancelled due to low numbers. Fine by me, but my friend Joanne is suddenly stuck with having to find a new subject just three days before college starts.

Morons. They could've at least warned people earlier on that the numbers weren't looking good, so they should prepare for the course being cancelled if more people didn't join.

I only found out the other day that chances of my Film A Level only being one year (AS) and I'll have to pick up another course next year if it doesn't continue to A2, gah.

Ignore this post it is a fake MoJoJo, although it mentions Joanne and stupid college it fails to mention the metro, MoJoJos trademark. Its a good thing youve got me around to spot the fakes!
