<p>If you read the admissions sites carefully, you will see that colleges define transfer students as anyone who has “matriculated at another institution”–not whether that student wants to transfer his credits. </p>
<p>You cannot just choose to ignore your past university record. If any other student, professor, or departmental advisor finds out you misrepresented yourself, the new college can rescind your acceptence, toss you out of school, or withdraw your degree anytime after you graduate from that college. So- say you gained acceptance after lying about not having attended any college, attended , and graduated. Would you want to worry for the rest of your life that the college would cancel your degree?</p>
<p>Could you be sure your fellow students or colleagues would not inform on you? Much better to just be honest and forthright from the beginning.</p>
