My dissertation was approved by the higher ups at school, and so I am finished! My diploma will have the date of July 31st on it. When I read the email last night I screamed. Poor bf was sitting right next to me. After two and a half years, I have my life back. 10 months ago

Mailed my dissertation to school. I feel like a kid waiting for Christmas. Maybe this week I can call myself doctor? 10 months ago

My advisor approved my dissertation. I am waiting to receive the forms I had to overnight her for her to sign. Once I get them back, I can send them into school with my dissertation. Hopefully, they will approve it and I will be done. Not popping any bottles of champagne yet though. Anything could still happen. 10 months ago

So my advisor has had the second draft of my dissertation for three weeks now. After writing her last night to ask what was going on she stated that she hadnt looked at it, was hoping to get to it tomorrow and would have it back to me next week. WTF? THREE MONTHS ago I finished it, first draft had some spelling errors. This is beyond ridiculous. I cant move forward until she approves it. Grrrrrr 11 months ago

So I finally received my dissertation back from my advisor, and Im pretty sure she didnt even read it. Her comments made no sense. She also included a note stating that she wouldnt be able to look at it again until June 1st. This was May 20. Fine, whatever. So on the 31st I overnighted it to her with an envelope with pre paid postage to overnight it back to me. She sent me an email (responding to the one that I wrote her asking if she received it) stating that she would be out of town from the 6th to the 12th. Did she look at it before she left (she had 5 days) Nope.
I am so tired of this BS. I finished the damn thing 10 weeks ago and am supposed to be graduating next month. I really needed to be done by march, yet here it is the middle of june and I am still freaking waiting. 11 months ago

So my advisor has had my dissertation for a month now and I havent heard a damn thing from her. Its only 93 pages. It should not take this long. 12 months ago
