Transcript hold, but want to transfer

<p>okay, any help or advice would be great!</p>

<p>I attended a college last year for one semester, I could not finish there because i ran into personal and financial difficulty. I owe them 3k. I only took 12 credits during that semester but of course they will not release my transcripts until that $ is payed off. I am trying to work out a payment plan with their 3rd party collection agency, but it will take some time before i pay it all off.</p>

<p>I want to go to a community college or another college that would be cheaper (one that financial aid can cover all $)</p>

<p>my question it, colleges usually ask for official transcripts from ALL colleges attended, can I go to a new school without that particular transcript? This isn't a problem for me because i can retake the one class that would be applicable to my RN degree.</p>

<p>Thanks in advance</p>

<p>Pay off the bill so that you can get your transcript. No, there isn’t any other option.</p>
