when you transfer they won't accept the D anyway. so i would transfer the b's and take the class i got the d in. good luck!

I see what you're trying to do--but DO NOT try to bury that community college transcript. Doing that is grounds for expulsion if it ever surfaced.

But you have some good options. First, since you were in the hospital, you should be able to get a "hardship" withdrawal from the courses you were taking. This will effectively erase the grades for those courses. That you took the courses will appear on your transcript, but your new college won't have a problem with that (just make sure you have a letter from your doctor so that you can verify the facts). From what you said, your community college doesn't seem to have a very good attitude--but you are within your rights to do this--so don't be afraid to be pushy if need be.

The other option is based on something many students are not aware of. That is that your GPA will "start over" at your new college--and to the extent that that's relevent in the future (say, for grad school) that is the one that will count.

But whatever you do--again--DON'T try to conceal your current transcript. Good Luck! :)

Do not lie about your tenure at a community college, they will find out. It may be later, but it will cost you more at that time. Your "Bs" will be fine, the "D" may not transfer. Make an appointment with the transfer counselor, or an acedemic counselor. Either of those can help you with what you need to know.

Most colleges have a program by which a student can drop a grade/class as if they never took it.

If you do not wish to transfer your credits, I see no reason to include your community college experience.
