College or no college?

I had to register for an SVQ as part of my current employment contract, so I get on that and register with a college, I painfully secure a fee waiver, and I enroll on my course, only to be told a few weeks later nobody realised I was enrolled and I haven't been assigned a tutor. I wouldn't mind but I had completed two modules which turned out to be optional and would not go towards any final grade. I followed it up once I realised this, I received a couple of emails apologising and have not heard a peep since. I have now missed a whole semester. The thing is, if i turned up face to face and demanded attention I might have got somewhere, only I have Fibromyalgia and I am Autistic and I only have so many spoons. I'm an adult, I hear you say, suck it up you think, but would you tell someone in a wheelchair they can't go to college because you don't believe in ramps? I don't have help to manage my day to day life, I have to fight for my physical health every day and
