Summer Qtr Grades

Summer quarter is generally a tough one and I took 11 credits.  At first I thought what am I thinking?  Working full time and taking 11 credits in a shortened quarter.  I knew I could do it but it would be rough.. it was.  Losing my job at the end of the quarter wasn't to bad, in fact I lost it right before finals.  Weird timing, but hey it allowed more study time.  I worked hard all quarter and my grades reflected it, after everything was graded and posted I had a 4.0, 4.0 and a 3.7.  Today the grades were posted to transcripts.. I had a 4.0, 4.0 and a 3.0.  SAY WHAT?  How did my 3.7 go to a 3.0?  Emailed the instructors of the English class, but now I think I have to sit and wait.  Hopefully it will get corrected soon, however I fear they may not get the emails until September when classes start back up.  I know it will be corrected as it's obviously an error, but in 2 weeks my transcripts are being sent to EWU.  Sure 3.0 isn't too bad, but the grade is wrong.  It shouldn't effect my enrolling in EWU as I don't have to apply for admission. I'm going through a returning student process, the rest of my grades are fine and by the time I enroll at EWU I'll have my AA-DT.  I just hate the fact that one of the grades is wrong :(

The only thing I can do at this point is sit and wait.  I will attempt to call them tomorrow as well if I don't hear back.  I wouldn't be surprised if I couldn't do anything about it until Fall Quarter starts (September 21).  When it gets fixed do I request my transcripts be re-sent to EWU?  I guess that is a question I"ll have to ask the transcript office, or call EWU to find out.
