I'm a non trad student, and had a previous 2 cc semesters from 10+ years ago that completely slipped my mind when entering my grades. All classes were introductory, and have since been repeated at my 4 year institution. I've been verifiedthrough AACOMAS, and have an interview next week. What the hell should I do? I'm thinking that I'll expedite a copy of the transcripts and bring them on my interview and just explain the situation. Any help is greatly appreciated as I am now freaking out. TIA.

Better still to contact the Admission dean and explain your situation. Y'know, be proactive?

Update on my situation if interested.

I called AACOMAS and was told nothing could be done to edit my primary app since it had already been verified. They told me that I would need to contact the school individually and notify them of my mistake.

I contacted the admissions department and explained my situation. They told me that "we all make mistakes," and that this would not jeopardize my interview next week. They acknowledged the fact that I contacted them prior to the interview. I had to write an email explaining my situation and I had my transcripts expedited to the school immediately.

I know some don't believe that this was an honest mistake, but oh well. One semester was when I was directly out of high school 12 years ago that I stopped attending 1/2 way through the semester. The other was a semester that I transferred to another school in another state during Hurricane Katrina. I stopped attending classes when my family moved back to New Orleans. These instances didn't even cross my mind when entering grades as I've never even inquired as to what these transcripts would look like. I listed the courses that I knew I received credit for my pre-reques. I know it's completely my fault as I guess I didn't pay attention to the fact that ALL courses had to be listed.

Anyway, thanks to everyone that gave me advice and didn't ridicule me for trying to "cheat the system." Lol. Y'all keep me in your thoughts for next week!
