You need to get your records evaluated. Until you have that done, you don’t know what your options are. In your situation, I do not recommend taking any credit classes while you are waiting. Those grades would also become part of your permanent academic record, and if they are bad, they will cause problems for you.

If you want to study, enroll in non-credit classes through the continuing education division of a local community college, or in a non-credit class through Coursera or Khan Academy or some other MOOC. You also could consider enrolling in an Intensive English program that offers high level academic English writing classes to get ready for the writing you will have to do when you do enroll in credit classes here someday. Just be sure that those aren’t credit bearing for now.
