Student Accounts

4:10pm- Call Student Accounts on campus to find out information for a student on how to spend the money they received with a scholarship.
4:10pm- On hold, waiting for the next available representative.
4:15pm- Still on hold
4:20pm- Still on hold
4:25pm- A lovely voice answers "Student Accounts, may I help you?" only to immediately disconnect the call and hang up on me.
(A BRIEF MOMENT OF INTENSE FRUSTRATION)
4:26pm- Call Student Accounts
4:30pm- On hold, waiting for the next available representative.
4:35pm- Still on hold
4:40pm- Still on hold
4:45pm- Still on hold
4:46pm- (After listening to MANY minutes of cheesy, "hold" music) I hear a recorded message come on. It says only this.

"You have reached the Student Accounts office. Our office hours for Wednesday and Friday are 8am to 4:30pm. Please call our office again during our available hours. Thank you."

4:47pm- Speechless.

When will the student learn....spend the money first, ask questions later.
