<p>Im applying for readmission at a major university, I was a student there for three years, then dropped out in bad standing. I attended another local university part time for a year and did poorly due to the format of the classes and the same difficulties let led me to dropping out of my original university....</p>
<p>I am now applying for re-admission this spring and I'm about ready to send in my application...I have my letters of recommendation and everything...however I have stated that I have not attended another university since my last semester in attendance. What should I do? Come clean? I really feel like the transcripts would reflect negatively however..and I wasn't even a full-time student there.</p>
<p>Another thing, the Universities are extremely affiliated, then even share classrooms at times.</p>
<p>IMO, there is the chance that if you are re-admitted, your admission could be rescinded if you have lied on your application. So, you should answer honestly and include the transcript.</p>
<p>You say “however I have stated that I have not attended another university”… do you mean that this is in the application you are about to submit? Or that you have already submitted something saying this? If the latter, I would submit a corrected statement and indicate that you failed to include it before because you had attended part-time and didn’t realize you needed to include that.</p>
<p>Whenever you apply for admission to a degree program (and this includes readmission), you are obligated to provide official copies of all transcripts of previous college/university work. In the case of readmission, you must provide copies of all transcripts from college/university work that you did after leaving the place that you are trying to be readmitted to.</p>
<p>So yes, you have to admit to taking those classes, and you have to send an official copy of the transcript. Period.</p>
<p>You are correct that your bad grades at the second institution aren’t going to do you much good. But they might not particularly harm your application either. What you must do is provide clear evidence to the admissions/readmissions team that you have overcome the difficulties that led to your academic problems in the past. They won’t want you back unless you can convince them that you are now ready and able to be a successful student.</p>
