<p>@Theatreplease - a year at community college could improve your GPA - but then you create the transfer issue. Every school accepts freshman - NOT every school (esp in the BFA world) takes transfers - or they take a very small number. You would need to investigate to make sure the programs you really want would be open. That said, it’s a viable option. Are there schools that you really want that you don’t feel you are eligible for right now?</p>
