Hi so I live in iowa and had to attend a CC because finances, unfortunately due to some personal issues failed and had to drop out. I recently decided I would like to return but don’t think I will be able to handle it if I stay in my town. I was wondering if anyone knows if I would be able to retake some, if not, all of the courses I failed at a different CC.
Thanks in advanced!
As far as I know, you’ll be able to start fresh. However, upon completing your studies at your new CC and applying, most universities require applying transfer students to submit academic records from ALL post-secondary institutions. In some cases, your old CC grades may be factored in your overall GPA.
While it may sound as if your old CC performance is coming back to haunt you, keep in mind that time heals most academic wounds. If you work hard, and maintain a great GPA at your new CC, you’ll have a solid upward trend, and that means a lot.
Best of luck! If you have any other questions, don’t hesitate to personally message me!
