Wasted 5 months my life and made me look foolish!

I am living in the USA and had been told that you can study through UNISA internationally and it is pretty affordable. I app**** back in August 2015 to study this year(2016) and was really excited to start my studies. After nearly 5 months of UNISA making excuses for why their applications were taking so long and me trying to convince friends here in the USA that this was a better option than local colleges, UNISA finally declines my application and says that they can't process it because my documents weren't notarized. I am angry on a few levels and here they are:<br> <br> 1) UNISA could have skimmed our applications almost immediately to see whether the documents were acceptable and given us an answer in less than 5 months. I app**** at SNHU(online) here in the USA last year but never went through with it and was accepted in one day...yes that's right, 149 days less than it took UNISA to give me a simple \NO"answer with no alternatives).<br> <br> 2) Due to UNISA's time wastage I passed up an opportunity to study at a local American college and must now wait until August for the next semester to start so technically UNISA wasted an entire year of my life because they wouldn't go the extra mile."""
