HELP! I got a "C" in Community College Class, end of the world?

Hey guys, I got a "C" in Music Theory in a Community College Class during this spring semester. I really don't want this to be in my HS/UC GPA whatsoever.

Is there a way to not show my "C" to the colleges?

If I choose not to request a transcript and not turn it in to my HS and to college, is that good enough to hide it?

Thanks guys, hope you guys can help me out here...

One C is not the end of the world, especially in a class that's not in the academic core. The colleges ask for your transcript. Don't lie. Show it to them.

Not turning it in can get you in a whole lot more trouble than the C will!

College really don't consider non-academic classes.

I got a C in a community college class last year as a freshman in an academic class. Sad, I know. It was a foreign language but still. Anyway...I empathize. I almost got one this semester, but it turns out I didn't. I don't think one C will matter too much on your transcript, especially in a class like that, as others have said. Good luck!

Many homeschoolers suggest starting out in community college with a very easy class for the homeschooler to guarantee success for the first time and so that the student can get acclimated to the classroom environment.
