Advisor Said I Can’t Get an ARC Petition

I attended a previous university with a general education credit that fulfilled ‘Human and Cultural Diversity’, however, I emailed the email my advisor told me to, but they took TWO MONTHS to respond.

In that first email I attached the syllabus of the previous course in around November. Not until last week did they respond with what provided class at this university would be comparable to the credit I had already acquired.

After I responded to the email, I have yet to receive a response. I talked to my advisor about an ARC petition because I would not have been able to drop it that first week for safe measures. He said an ARC petition is for “extensive measures”, however, I believe this is due to their faulty communication.

I emailed the email this morning, with a summary of all the continuous emails I have been sending before (I was also emailing them before winter break and during).

So, now I’m taking a class I don’t need, and I’m simply trying to free up my schedule because I have heavier classes. What do I do???
