To get credit for prior college work when enrolling at a different college, transcripts from all institutions attended previously are generally required. Transcripts will list courses by number, name, level, credit hours, and grade earned. The admitting college has its own rules or standards that will govern which course credits they will transfer in. A school may also or instead give credit for "life experience" or for subject knowledge the enrollee can prove, via testing. Although grades in completed courses must generally be 'C' or better to count for credit in the new school, the grades themselves and the cumulative grade-point average (GPA) will probably not be used by the new school. However they may be counted into the new GPA if the new school is part of the same school system, such as a different branch of the same university. In theory, a college applicant wanting a fresh start could simply omit mention of any previous college attendance. But then no credit for any prior work would be obtainable.

What are your expectations of college life?

College life is completely different from high school. Back in high school, I knew almost everyone. I was extremely comfortable with my surroundings. I always felt safe and like I fit in very well. My close friends and family would always be there for me to rely on. Whenever I was sick, lonely, or bored, there was always someone that I could call. They were this constant comfort for me. The classes were much easier in high school as well. Your grades weren't so dependent on your test scores, you had a lot more homework to turn in, and there was a lot more work to base your grades off of. (NADiA TAMSiLANi)

Law schools typically look at how you do in undergraduate courses instead of high school ones. Still, this does notmean that you can slack off in your high school studies, but how well you do in high school will matter more when applying for undergrad schools than law schools.In high school, as long as you do well in your online courses, you'll get into a good college. This in turn will boost your chances of getting into an excellent law school.

Contacting a financial advisor at the college you would like to go to (or are accepted into) is the best way to start. In some circumstances allowances will be made if parents are unwilling, or unable to assist with the financial costs of college.
