<p>Well, to make a long story short, I couldn't graduate high school this year because I couldn't attend class for the last two months and due to that I failed all of the classes I was taking, so my GPA dropped to about 2.7, now I'm attending college, but this wasn't my dream school, so I've been thinking about transferring next semester to a better school, so my question is if I take the GED exam, could I put on my common application that my education was interrupted and got a GED? because I don't want them to see my high school transcript. Thanks.</p>
<p>in general, you need to graduate from high school or obtain a GED before you can attend colleges full-time.</p>
<p>I actually am already in college, I don’t know if they are aware that I did not receive a diploma or if they received my final transcript, but what I’m asking is if I could get a GED so that I don’t have to send my transcript to the schools I apply to as a transfer next semester.</p>
<p>Are you sure that you didn’t graduate from high school. I don’t think the college would miss that.</p>
<p>Anyway, if you have 24 or more college credits, your college GPA becomes more important than your high school’s GPA.</p>
<p>P.S. In New York state, they will give you a GED if you earned 24 college credit hours and somehow didn’t graduate from high school.</p>
<p>In my state, if you have completed two years of college and want to complete two more at a different school, you are considered a junior-level transfer and your high school grades don’t count. </p>
<p>I would assume that it’s much the same where you live, but be sure to check each individual school’s policies on transfer. Speak to your counselor about it.</p>
<p>There are some community colleges in New York State are doing this program:
24-Credit GED Program
See an example
[SUNY</a> Orange: Admissions - 24 Credit Hour GED program](<a href=“http://www.sunyorange.edu/admissions/programs/24-credit.shtml]SUNY”>http://www.sunyorange.edu/admissions/programs/24-credit.shtml)</p>
<p>I wonder if your state has similar program?</p>
<p>You will have to send your hs transcript to any reputable college you apply to.</p>
<p>@Batllo, Even if I didn’t receive a diploma from them? in any case, which would weigh more the high school transcript or the GED score?</p>
