Convincing a college to wipe your old record?

Okay folks. I found a solution and want to post on here for future viewers.

I really did not want to receive the final credits I need at a four year college at double the cost so really wanted to attend a community college. However the college was alarmed at my low GPA and low grades from years past.

This is what I did which is the solution for anyone that runs into this issue. I just ignored them. Your GPA does not matter if you already have a good GPA from another school you graduated from. I just signed up as a visiting student, and continue to receive automatic academic warnings in the mail but that doesn’t matter because I am not looking to be an actual student. I’m just obtaining credits.

So I’m now attending Chem 1, Pre Calc, and Micro-EC for a total of 12 credits I will receive. Semester after that I will take Chem 2, Calc 1, and Physics I. In a one year period I will obtain 26 credits which will give me the prereqs to be accepted into UMASS. Problem solved.

I forced the school to intervene by signing up even though I was told I couldn’t, and once I owed the school tuition someone ended up calling me wanting transcripts from my older college again. They realized their mistake and stopped sending me warnings. In regards to the Fresh Start Program where they wipe your GPA, I learned that is only for full time students and if you are interested in trying for another degree. I already have a diploma from another school so this I found was irrelevant. Two GPAS don’t really matter.

So if a college says you are not allowed to attend, just drop in on the classes as a visiting student which is what I wanted all along. It’s that simple. You don’t need to reapply or become a full time student again. I was originally concerned about academic warnings but that is just an automated response that doesn’t affect your credits. That’s what I originally set out to determine to make sure it wouldn’t hurt my credits.
