If a counselor asks the university to remove information that was submitted for the previous year’s application student. He/She (student) is to apply again this year. Will the university do that??
No.
More to the point, if you were not accepted last year, your application needs to be substantially stronger this year. And based on an earlier thread, you stated you lied on your application and faked your counselor rec, you will not be accepted to any school you applied to last year.
Your best bet is to apply to colleges you never applied to before.

But wait….isnt this the poster who put erroneous information on his applications last year? Like not putting his real counselors name and editing his transcript to remove some poor grades?
In your previous thread you wrote this: “ I have done all of these because I have no counselor in my school and I have requested and tried my best to be my teacher to be my counselor but they do not want to be”.
So…where did the counselor come from because you claimed you have no counselor at your school!
Seems to me…the colleges will want HONEST information and might actually wonder why the changes are being made.
My opinion…this poster needs to apply to different colleges than last year…and make the application a truthful one which has real information and not made up and edited stuff.

Are you applying to Vandy? Here is what C. Madison Sarratt of Vanderbilt had to say:
" Today I am going to give you two examinations, one in trigonometry and one in honesty. I hope you will pass them both, but if you must fail one, let it be trigonometry, for there are many good {people} in this world today who cannot pass an examination in trigonometry, but there are no good {people} in the world who cannot pass an examination in honesty."

If you reapply to the same college that you applied to last year, you will probably get the same outcome. The university has already made its decision and usually does not change the result.
Unless you’ve found a documented cure for an ailment or world peace, your previous efforts wont change the original decision.
It is usually recommended that you apply to different schools. When you apply again to the same school, you are saying that the school made a mistake in their decision about you. They NO like that.
Be completely honest. It will come back to haunt you if you embellish or “change” things. Case in point.
Edited to add. “But I don’t want to come back to my country because of a false statement and lose everything in my life”.
You have already perjured yourself. You also seem to be under the false impression that once a student is accepted into a US university that they get to stay in the US. Immigration is a completely SEPARATE issue. Once an international student graduates from a US school, he/she is expected to return to their country. Plus, if you have committed fraud and perjury (taking academic funding with false records and lying about it) you can be convicted of fraud/perjury and be jailed and fined.
Edited to add. From Sir Walter Scott:
“Oh what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive”.

You clearly made some decisions that did not work out. You now regret them a little, but not enough to fully explain your current situation.
Somewhere in this strand or the one from the other day (that was closed) you made a statement about not wanting to return to your country because of this situation. Are you in the US now? Did you come here somehow after telling your family you got into a college, but did not actually get accepted anywhere?
No one here is going to tell you how to further lie or undo something that was illegal or unethical.
You clearly need some adult guidance. Please find someone to talk to in person. This forum and other online social media sites can not help you navigate out of the web of lies you created in your applications and the related distrust you have created with those at your high school or possibly family.
Do you actually have a school counselor from your previous school who is willing to help you?
Do you have a relative you can talk to and help you go home?
You can not reapply to schools you applied to last year with completely different information. I think you need to consider schools in your country and maybe grad school can be a fresh start in the US or another country.

And adding…if you are thinking about altering financial information so you can get a ton of need based aid…don’t. That is big big trouble…like a crime.
And…as not a citizen or permanent resident here…IF and it’s a big IF you got into college here, when you graduate, you will be required to return to your country. You can’t just decide to stay here.
I agree that college in your home country is your best bet…unless you have not been honest there too.
Last year you had no counselor. Now you are trying to remove info, asking for a counselor.
Hmmm - no counselor is going to ask a student to ask for this.
So while I didn’t see the thread last year, clearly you lacked ethics then. And you still do.
Where you go is irrelevant if you’re going to be a liar in life.
