Advice after being denied after provisional acceptance.

<p>Well i'm kind of in a pickle, I was denied acceptance after having provisional acceptance in cal Poly Pomona. However I still want to go there, I know the one grade that is the problem but i am not sure how too proceed. I am instead going to attend a community college in the spring term and re-apply however since reapplication is in the fall. I wouldn't start school till spring so i don't know if I should take maybe an online credit recovery class to fix the grade and re-send my high school transcript but then send my college grades later. Or if i should reapply as a transfer student since I would already have credits from the other college. problem is I don't know how too approach the transfer situation since by then the deadlines would be over and i would be in the middle of my first community college semester or term so i'm confused. Any help would be appreciated, also sorry if this is posted in the wrong place i'm confused with the lay out of the website.</p>

<p>I assume you are a freshman. All college acceptances to HS students are conditional. The conditions are usually something along the line that you graduate HS, complete essentially the classes you said you were taking, earn no grade less than a C, etc. It seems like you did not meet one or more of the conditions so they revoked your admission.</p>

<p>Cal Poly Pomona does not accept lower-division transfer students. See [Pomona:</a> Admission Requirements & Deadlines](<a href=“http://www.csupomona.edu/~admissions/undergraduate/transfer/requirements-deadlines.shtml]Pomona:”>http://www.csupomona.edu/~admissions/undergraduate/transfer/requirements-deadlines.shtml) </p>

<p>As soon as you take a single CC class (or at any other college) you will be considered a transfer student and you will need to wait until you have enough units to apply to CPP as a entering junior.

<p>I do not know if there is a way to take a class (online or not) somewhere other than a CC to fix the grade and be admitted as a freshman. Contact CPP admissions and ask. Their contact information is on the admissions website. </p>

<p>As general advice, you probably made this worse than it had to be, something you might want to consider a lesson for the future about owning up to issues right away instead of passively hoping things would work themselves out. You knew at the end of HS about the grade. Had you contacted them right away maybe they would have allowed you to take a makeup class at your HS during summer session, or at a CC. If not, you would have known in June that you were going to get revoked and had plenty of time to enroll at a CC. At this point it will probably take you at least one extra year of your life to finish college since it takes most people 2 years to earn the 2 years of college credits needed to be considered a junior, so since you’ll start college in the middle of the school year you’ll probably have to wait until the following school year to enter a 4-year college.</p>
