reporting bad after school Junior college grades for UC admissions?

<p>Are there any parents here whose kids went through a similar situation?</p>

<p>Should I report them? I go t a bunch of B at community colleges while taking AP classes, but those community college classes were extracurricular! UC want's me to report them, but my grades for them aren't all that good!! what should I do? I want to report the A's I got, but I don't want them to check my record and see that I also got B's in community colege s classes. According to them, It'll be calculated into my HS UC GPA and bring down my chances for admissions!! what should I do?</p>

<p>You really need to talk to your HS GC. I'm not sure it is possible to just ignore those CC grades but I could be wrong. If you don't want the college credit for them it may be possible to just not report them. My son took CC classes but his grades in those classes were dual enrollment so were on HS transcript and the one he took over summer he got an A so we wanted to report it. You need to make sure of what the exact rule is because if you don't report them and get accepted you could have a problem later. Check with your GC immediately!</p>

<p>Unless the UC's have a special exemption, you have to report ALL classes and grades earned at any college -- including bad grades. The college application will state that you need to have a transcript sent from all schools attended and when you enrolled in the Community college, you signed paperwork stating that you understood that your grades would be a permanent part of your record. If you used the courses for dual enrollment -- they high school proably had you sign paper work saying the same thing.</p>

<p>Call up the UC admission office and ask if there is any way to have them not count -- but I am very sure the answer if no. If you fail to send them, you are lying by omission and they can rescind your admittance or your diploma if it is discovered.</p>

<p>Believe me -- many of us have bad grades we would like to just leave off -- you just can't do it. Attending college classes as a high schooler is not an EC, it is advanced academic studies.</p>

<p>if the classes are used to satisfy the 'a-g' admissions requirements, such as Art History for VAPA, you must report them. If the classes are transferable, i.e., IGETC, you must report them. If they are purely non-academic electives, such as drivers ed, into to keyboarding, golf, or personal investing, then UC doesn't want to see them.</p>
