Poll of the Day > Why is the application process for College so dumb?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I'm constantly having to go back and forth between the website and the campus because they keep telling me to do things that I've already done and things that I have no idea on how to accomplish.

Did anyone else have trouble applying for their College? Or is the College that I'm just trying to apply to just insanely retarded?

I had a shit load of trouble with my college applications.

It's because you don't matter to them so they don't give a shit.

I didn't really have any trouble applying to my community college or to my four-year institute.

I sense an incoming moderation.

Why can't you just wave money in front of them?

As long as I use that word without directing it at a specific person, then I should I should be fine.

Are you aware that gamefaqs gives you a warning about using the word retarded before you post your message? It all depends on how you use the words.

Though I'm not sure how mods view it. The might just end up moderating me anyway.

I dunno it was pretty uncomplicated. Send them some scores and some emails, scan some documents here and there, and then you're good to go.

It might just be where you're applying to, or maybe I just lucked out and football just helped facilitate that process.

Yeah, my application process was ridiculous. If I didn't have my parents to help me sort it out I'd have been fucked. For instance, I would have overlooked this form that needed to be filled out to let them know you have insurance. If it weren't for my mother noticing that I'd have been fined eight hundred bucks.

Figuring out the application process is part of the application process.
*waves hands mystically*

Lol just wait til you start applying for jobs

It may be more straightforward, but you'll want to kill yourself after writing the same shit over and over, and then answering the dumb questions like "why do you want to work here" (to make money fucking duh) or "desired salary" (even though the job you're applying for HAS a salary listed).

Oh and the jobs that say "entry-level" in the application and then require 3 years of prior experience

Dude, if you can't apply to fucking college correctly and follow their simple instructions, you're gonna have a long ass career at Burger King.

Hey now, a BK restaurant manager can make $36k a year. Not bad for someone without tens of thousands in student loan debt.

Promotion to district manager averages $67k a year if you're good at it.
