<p>Thank you NewHope - you explained it well in your first para. </p>
<p>I’d like to learn more about the “possibilities of action are virtually endless”
Yes D certainly wants to get a college education - just not at the same place. Seeing how harsh the college was I do support her since as every parent knows in their heart they want the best for their child no matter what the mistake. We have talked at lengths and while it is not consoling, mistakes like this happen especially with freshmen - it is a new landscape for them and they have not yet developed the maturity to think things through. Yes you are also right in saying that it would have been best if this patch was avoided. She feels terrible and vows to keep her eyes open in the future.</p>
<p>I am trying to see what to do looking forward. Can a parent appeal at a private college?
Could you also explain the ‘open enrollment’ portion more. Sorry I did not go to college here so I really don’t know/understand terms which might be common to others - all the more why this is so overwhelming to begin with. </p>
<p>Also about the documentation at the original school - does the transfer school get a copy of it? Anyone know about the FERPA implications?</p>
