What could UMPI do better?

Even students on campus don't have 100% freedom in choosing their classes. They make a Wish List in their student account online and their advisor signs them up for their classes. The advisor can reject their Wish List. My academic advisor is pretty strict on sticking with what is required for your degree and only what's required for the degree. I asked for an extra class last term because I knew it was my final term and I needed 4 classes to be considered full time for financial aid. I didn't want to lose any of my Pell Grant. I've paid a boatload in taxes over the last 30 years and was happy to get some back. My advisor had to check with financial aid about this. She only allowed me to take the extra class because financial aid said I would be dropped down to part time and it would impact my aid package.
