A student from my highschool was admitted freshman after a year of college in Serbia, two years ago. And when they asked him what has he been doing for the past year, he said: attended a university! But, when I told them I have been attending a university they rejected my application and moved it to transfer. I was just wondering WHY?

<p>You have to be very careful about the information that you get from friends because they are only going to tell you what they want you to know.</p>
<p>MIT has not suddenly changed it's policy. Has it occured to you that your friend is being less than truthful with you?</p>
<p>Because you know that he attended university if he got into MIT as a freshman, it is very likely that he did not put on his application he had been to college. maybe he did not want you to rat him out because if the school found out that he did lie on his application they would kick him out.</p>
<p>If he had been truthful he would have been in the same situation that you are in now.</p>
