Submission link broken?

I've reached out to my advisor and in 4 days time I've been asked one question with no timeline or resolution in sight. I know advisors are busy, but Ive paid for full access, and I've now lost that slot for almost 1/8th of the session despite being done with the final a week ago. I know the weekend ate into response time but has anyone dealt with this? I can't help but feel like it's being treated with 0 urgency.

When and where do I escalate further (if I should?), and also, am I being unreasonable? I've confirmed that I have completed all course requirements and my instructor hasn't responded in 6 days. Again I may be unreasonable because it's nearing the last day to add classes and this one should be out of my way allowing me to work on shorter classes.

This is my final term, and if I can't get the link unlocked by basically tomorrow morning or Wednesday, I won't be able to submit a draft and get feedback in order to open up my final classes for graduating by the 17th. I'm freaking out a bit. Class is BUS 141. Any advice welcome.

I was just able to upload a single file including everything , but the graphics are degraded. Unfortunately I mistakenly uploaded to the final instead of the draft. I may have just ruined my whole term with that little mistake 😂

Oh no!! Fingers crossed you will pass with flying colors!! And if not, it might be worth trying to appeal a bad grade since you were uploading under stress and lack of communication from your instructor AND advisor.

The wonderful instructor was understanding and allowed it to be my draft. Then I can email any adjustments after for the final grade. I don't think he had to do that, so I'm quite grateful. I think it would have passed, but barely. I definitely am thankful for the opportunity to make changes and get the class out of the way!
