In order to apply to school, you need to have your high school mail the official transcripts from their institution to the college you want to attend.

There is no other way around this, and no one else can get your official transcripts for you. No one here is at fault if you can't attend college.

RR has provided you with the means to get the aforementioned done. If you choose not to pursue it, that's on you.

XFilesGeek, if I understand correctly (and I might not!) AP realizes now that if he applies to community college, his HS transcripts have to be sent from the school to the college. But I think he wants a copy in his possession too so that at the time he applies, if the HS says they cant find his records, or not a complete set of them, he can turn around and say that they do to have them as they just sent him a copy. I think he refers to it as shaming the HS.

What I was referring to in my recent post was the copy for his personal retention.

...Basically right, more or less, Anne.
One reason I haven't written the HS yet (there's more) is that person/people here have said I should wait until after summer vacation to write them...
Incidentally, I am in the hospital again, I went in Monday or Tuesday, the CHF weight again :( . I am, jut now, about to have still another IV put in me... :|

...My difficulties with working with only low-end phones, my difficulty concentrating, and my difficulty, specifically, in dealing with the distinct posting problems that go along with WP also kept me from writing the HS. There was also being barred from here. I am in the hospital, it could lead to some - Planned by me as temporary!! !! ! - " place elsewhere " offer, such as the already-discussed Patterson thing, but their has been no concrete " do you want to go here? " offer made since the Tuesday? I came in here either (It's Sunday.).
I had thought I'd maybe leave the motel room, however, there is the question of what to do with other phone.edibles, lots of clothes and more I left there. Have them thrown out? I have lost "all my stuff " numerous times :cry: . If thrown out, by who, then? I put splurge pubs in the storage space, that's an intended - the buying of them was - an attempted settling-down move. I have tried to reach the NYS lawyer for days now to speak him but he has been unreachable :( .

Even if it has to be a sealed-from-the-HS envelope, after my earlier experience s WHEN I APPLIED TO UNI AT LEAST PRETTY CLOSE TO ALL ALONE, as I was being ordered to do by people here (who maybe did not nessacary do that themselves :twisted: ) and those applications apparently led to not-complete transcripts being sent to those to whom I applied...Well, some dealing with the transcripts-holder could, maybe, shame/embarass them, if nothing else, into doing it right this time, if I tried one more application. This was my main focus. I was not asking for money or gifts, certainly here. You just seem to be wanting to say something nasty to me, " Well, you might've been! ", like RU :P . Sour grapes.


Them not sending complete or appropriate transcripts to a college you applied to makes no sense, they would NOT do that because they "hate you" or any other reason. What did the colleges say precisely on that score?

If your life was a misfire, that's very likely because you either thought other people would set things up for you and do them, and or you thought things would just happen and materialize by themselves without any effort on your part in terms of setting them up and etc.

...Did you spend your twenty-first birthday in a state loony bin, pumped full of (the drugs mentioned in my signature/similar), a psych saying about you " He's not good for anything else but being on back wards the ready of his life " :cry: ? Were you raped as a sixteen year-old Virgin, when you thought someone was trying to make friends with you :cry: ,- I"ll bet the rapist got to go to uni :cry: - and you were not allowed to tell your father about it, told you would be put away if you did, and that was never reversed? :cry:
Well......

That was like 40 years ago. How did a misdiagnosis of schitzophrenia (im assuming) result in you never being able to find employment of any kind?

I'm sorry all of those things happened to you and it is certainly understandable thar they have had such a lasting impact on your life. You should have had the support and guidance you needed and deserved as a young person. I wish we could go back in time to fix your past but that is not a possibility we have been afforded, and I wish he had a way to make the trauma of your past disappear but we unfortunately don't. I'm very sorry it has affected you so profoundly.

Agreed. Don't poo poo Jr Colleges. Many are great places to start.


I completely agree. I had to leave my original career due to issues related to my nonverbal learning disability, and I retrained at a community college in a new field. I still only have an associate's degree in that field but I've been able to be successful in my career, even working at one of the big high-tech companies (although that turned out to be WAY too stressful so now I'm in a lower stress job).

Regarding whether or not transcripts have to be mailed directly to the institution... take this with a grain of salt, but my recollection was that I was able to mail in one of the special "sealed" copies of my transcripts. I ordered a bunch of sealed, "official" transcripts at the same time so that I wouldn't have to go through the process for every school I applied to (I still have a few). Still, better to call and ask the school if you're not certain (and of course the safer option is just to have the school mail it).

Also, interesting that ASS-P is from Westchester County. I am also, and for my high school, the process for getting a transcript is to send in a form with a check. Now I'm really curious about where ASS-P went to school!

ASS-P I'm not telling you what to do like boss to subordinate or parent to child. I'm telling you as a person who cares. I'm simply making a suggestion. Here are the facts:

a. You're sick.

b. You have problems with the bureaucracy and paperwork.

c. You're homeless and have no money.

d. You're perservating on this is f*****g you up mentally.

I think you need to take care of yourself as much as possible and quit eating junk food. I do think that GF said that health is wealth which means if you get yourself healthier then you will be able to do more stuff ergo bringing in more income.
