Oh man, this is pretty recent. So after studying 1 year of a 2 year diploma, I get a full time job at a reputable company, and I basically end up working full time for ~3 years. During this time I asked the program head how much time from the start of my program I had to complete it (assuming I didn't want my first year tuition to go to waste, and would return). They said 7 years. About a year later, I check with them again (just in case), and the program head has been replaced, and the new guy says 5 years. Fast forward a bit, I left the company and just started another job for 3 months, yet another new program head (that replaced the previous one) emails me out of the blue and says I've passed the 3 years allowed to complete the 2 year diploma program. After explaining all this to him, he basically says he'll allow me to return only if I return immediately and complete my final year without hiccups, and to sign a "performance contract". I ended up having to quit my job due to pressure from family on finishing my studies, and a bit of a sunk costs mentality. Thank God I'm done with that now.
