Indeed, that describes quite well the kind of red tape I'll be facing if I end up going back to school. It's a maddening circus that just plain pisses me off whenever I attempt to just gather information about it, never mind actually trying to do something.

Makes me wish I'd win the lottery or something and be able to sidestep all of it. Hell, the universities of the UNC network would probably have me going to a public university even if I could afford a private college -- the state schools in the Connecticut State University system were not pleasant experiences for me, but the UNC schools have interesting programs, and the UNC Chapel Hill campus is as pretty as a lot of private schools I've seen. (Though Duke remains one of the prettiest schools I've ever seen.)
