WA...

Now this is becoming interesting. Need I say, scary?

I waited a week, hoping this was all a dream, that I would wake up suddenly and hear differently.
No such luck.

So I logged into my student profile on the University website, and noticed WA was stated next to the module I was told I had to retake.

Huh?

WA? I didn't understand what that meant. At the same time, I was scared.
I summoned up whatever courage I had left within me and sent an email to the Tutor for clarifications. His reply, referring me to academic support for further clarifications almost had me literally fall off my seat. Academic support? Na so e don be now? 
Abi na email? I sent the email to academic support. And their response?



'Dear Ada, WA is the grade obtained for this module which means WITHDRAWN ACADEMICALLY'

The hot tears just did an unrestricted free fall on my face. The Office suddenly became hot and the heat lay thick as a towel.
I didn't read the rest of the email. I honestly can't remember if anything else was said after that line above.

Withdrawn Academically???
Wait, does this mean I have been academically withdrawn from the module or the entire degree? 
Ha!
Oh, I read the email just before the close of business at work and a colleague remarked,

'Na wa o. When no be Harvard?'  


Words fail me. How did I get here? How did this happen? All of this is not familiar.
Now this is not about the money anymore as I am more than willing to pay 2,000 Euros sef to get back on the programme.

WA...withdrawn academically?


Till next week Sunday (God willing)...
...while I seek further clarifications on WA

    1. Oh dear! Please encourage her to go on like I'm doing. You can send her the link to my blog to encourage her because really that is the essence of this blog. Better yet, send me an email adamilola365@gmail.com with her phone number or email address so I can speak with her, if that is ok with you? Thank you!
