Hello. I am not able adjust a grade without the permission of the College. You need to contact the College directly and see if you are able to get an extension to do this work. Sorry I can't do more and thanks.

So now I'm going to have to try to get a straight answer from the college...Who knows how long that will take?
Also, if I do end up having to retake the course, I must enroll in the December 2010 semester to even be close to being finished by the March 2011 graduation date. I don't even know if I will be able to make that deadline. And the early registration for the December semester ends Nov. 7.
I wonder if the new Straighterline Business Communications course would be accepted for credit. I'm sure it would be faster, and it would be cheaper if this doesn't work out.
For those that disagreed, I am glad we can all have opinions.....
Anyway, so obviously the mentor is not willing, I never said they didn't have the power, to change the grade for whatever reason. I attended TESC and if I remember correctly there was a clear policy on when an extension could be requested as well and I don't think that will be feasible.
Bringing in any outside class obviously won't change the GPA at TESC as they only calculate their own courses and they won't take that course off of the transcript unless you retake the course.
