<p>My daughter panicked when she had a test she wasn’t prepared for. She wrongly claimed that her grandmother died to avoid taking the test. She got found out, and was expelled. She knows what she did was wrong and feels horrible and distraught. Can she get into another college?</p>
<p>Of course she can get into college somewhere else. The real issue will be if she can get into the college that she thinks she’d like to be attending.</p>
<p>She can start by finding out from her old college/university whether or not she would be able to re-enroll there, and what steps she would need to take to do so. While she has that conversation, she can get that person’s advice on how to apply to other places as well.</p>
<p>But seriously, if she panics about tests that she isn’t prepared for, she may need to deal with her anxiety issues first before she tries to go back to college anywhere. Until she has better coping skills, college is not the place for her to be.</p>
<p>Good advice, and good point. She has agreed to see a counselor in the short term, and a life coach in the longer term to help with adjustment and time management problems. Just hoping her transcripts don’t prevent a second chance from an immature, poor choice and decision.</p>
