Where a former student who did not do well at college in his late teens, could return at 25 and benefit from a full college experience?

Most colleges factor in some "forgiveness", especially after age 23. One pathway would be to take a course or two as "non matriculated" - and see how you do. If you can show you have the potential, it enhances your application for a degree program. Some programs are tougher than others...Nursing, for example. But most will give you a chance. Why not check out taking your general ed courses through a community college? Most of the state schools have reciprocal agreements where all the courses will transfer in.
Good luck!

I'm sure any college/university would understand the difficulty you had in your youth and accept you as a non-traditional student. Apply to all the ones you are interested in.
Best wishes!

Look for Adult Enrollment programs. Some institutions may place you on Academic Probation. But you won't know unless you apply.
