How will messing up my first year in college (2003) affect getting into grad school?

Thanks julliet. The state schools I was referring to are Penn state, U Maryland and U Delaware. And even though I would not be upset by any means going to any of those schools, there are others on my list that I am really hoping for. I am inclined to agree with you that mistakes from 10 years ago won’t hold much bearing it’s just that I have to send in 3 transcripts, one of which is horrid, the other simply has two withdrawals and nothing else, (both of these are from the early 2000s though) and the other one is good but is from the CC that I went to in order to transfer to my current school…and then my current transcript which is excellent (not bragging, just being honest).

On another note, can you give me suggestions about what to ask a potential professor I want to work with? I’m really nervous about emailing them
