College ripoff scam

Ok, so I'm pissed and mad as hell at the University of Akron.

I went with 1 sole purpose to become an addictions counsellor. I went to advising before my 1st semester (Last Spring) and they put me in 3 classes they said I needed.
I went at the end of last semester TOLD the fucking advisor what I wanted to do. He fucking acted like he had no idea what I was talking about and told me I needed to go through a Community Services program for 2 years get my Associate's, then get a Bachelor's in Social Work and then take advantage of the accelerated Master's of Social Work program they offer. Again, he plotted out my schedule as I sat and believed what he had to say, because I thought he understood what I wanted and knew the best way for me to get it.

Today, I'm sitting in my Intro to Addictions class (which is the only addictions class I have taken so far because these dumbfucks, who are supposed to help me, don't know what the fuck they are doing). Class starts and the prof. hands out the requirements for getting liscensed as a Chemical Addictions Counsellor in the state of Ohio are.

Lo and fucking behold, I could have the whole fucking thing done in 2 fucking semesters and take my liscensing test and be liscensed. So I'm thinking these dumbfucks are running a fucking scam on me, by having me take 2 years worth of classes that won't get me liscensed, then I'll have to add another semester and a half or 2 to make up for the Addictions classes to meet the requirements to get fucking liscensed when I could already be liscensed have a job as a counsellor AND then be working for my LiSW or MSW.

So I'm truly fucking pissed because I told these fucks what I wanted and I believed what they told me, because it is their fucking job in advising to know what the fuck a person needs to get what he wants.

I don't need a degree in Social Work or Community Services all I fucking need is the 27 credit hours of mandatory classes and to take a fucking liscensing test.

So I'm running up fucking loans and fucking time because of this. Tomorrow, since I started working in the Community Services department as an office boy, I'm going to talk to the head of the department and ask her if she can fix this situation by getting me into the right classes and dropping the fucking classes I don't need.

Sorry for my rant, just truly feel I've been fucked without the courtesy of them using K-Y on me and needed to blow off some steam.
