<p>I applied to the University of Pittsburgh as a transfer student, and everything was going went well, until they asked for an old transcript. I was not even at this school for a few months, and had to leave after thanksgiving for family problems (father was sick). I did not finish up the classes, and I now looked at my transcript and Incomplete grades turned into F's. I did put it on my application, and they still began to look at my folder</p>
<p>Now I ended up going to Drexel for 1 year (40 credits) and have a 3.0 at that University. I went to Community College and have a 3.7 there, with 35 credits and 17 in the works now. This is basically what they are looking for in a transfer application, and I have strong recommendations, a reason to go to this school over all others. This is basically the 2 years, and most of there gen ed's will be finished by the end of this semester</p>
<p>They requested this transcript, so how much would it count do you think? I am going to contact the registar at that school and try to put in W's instead of Incompletes, but that is certainly not guranteed.</p>
<p>Well I had Incompletes, but never finished the course because I left, so supposidly they turned them into F's after 1 year. </p>
<p>I dont even have the energy or resources to go back there and meet with the dean (very hard to get in touch with), that school is 6+ hours away from me now. Plus i have a busy schedule. </p>
<p>If they cant fix it, will it even matter that much?</p>
<p>Well, they only switched one class to a W. the rest are the same. They told me a can make an appointment with the Dean, but I dont have the time nor energy. Should I submit this transcript to Pitt? My other 2 transcripts meet and exceed their standards for admission, but dont know about this.</p>
<p>I am taking 20 credits right now, and dont have the time to drive 6+ hours to meet with the dean. that would take 2 days, and I have class pretty much all day M-F, and during the weekend I study, go out, and work. There is no time until thanksgiving, but that is too late for the spring.</p>
<p>so im going to get the transcript and send it.</p>
<p>I have 1 Full Year of College at Drexel University with a 3.1 now completed, and 1 and a half year of credits at a community college with a 3.7. At the end of this semester, I will have 2 years of college at Community College under my belt.</p>

<p>If you still have proof of your dad having been ill, then please do what you gotta do to have those "W" marks down on that transcript. </p>
<p>E mail, e mail, e mail everyone you can think of. Send certified letters to the dean where you make veiled reference to having legal council or something. </p>
<p>And, yeah, maybe go there also. </p>
<p>Seriously. I would walk a lake of fire if I had a screwy transcript which was beyond my flipping control. No offense. Once again, I truly do mean no offense towards you.</p>
<p>It's understandable you can't just pick up and drive 6 hours. Call Pitt and explain to them why it wil show F's, admissions counselors are usually pretty understanding, and will note your file.</p>
<p>of course, im completely ****ed off right now.</p>
<p>Im going to have to send them a transcript as is though, this can take some time to get ironed out. I dont have the time for this, all my other grades and transcripts are competitive, by the time this semester is over I will have 2 years of Community College credits with a 3.7 GPA, and I am only 20. This doesnt even include 1 year of wortheless credits at Drexel.</p>
<p>I dont think this will weight heavily on the decision, thank god. I will call both parties tomorrow, and fax a letter telling them to put all my grades as W's (since they know I did not return).</p>
<p>WELL Now I have a 1.2 GPA, better then a .1 or something hahah LMAO. the rest cant be fixed, I even spoke with the dean, and most of the "documentation" is missing. </p>
<p>thats the transcript that is going to Pitt, I cant hold this up any longer. Spoke with the admission director today and she didnt think it should count towards that much since it is so old and I have 2 + years from other locations. </p>
<p>I will continue to fix this transcript though, and when time permits I will go to NH to yell and scream LMAO.</p>
<p>well they received the transcript, i sent them a letter of explanation and whatnot. hopefully this will go smoothly, since my other GPA's are competitive.</p>
