I found out more of the reason why I was not accpeted into college. My highchool credits do not appease the admissions. I lack 2 foreign languages and 1 lab science (they do not accept principles of technology cm as physics, that is just another name for it were i live)
and algebra 2 (highschool did not offer algebra 2 at the time). Pretty much to the colleges I did not graduate from highschool as far as they are concerned. I took a full load of classes all 4 years without ever failing a class, however. I cant take college courses to appease these requirements ( they only appease to the college level and still demand a highschool level requirement to appease that I fullfilled the highschool requirements) I have already graduated from highschool, Is it possible to get a GED as well to get these requirements? To look at my original question first

Call the college and ask to talk to an enrollment adviser.
See what they recommend. If they refuse to help you try a different university.
Instead of taking the GED, you might consider taking SAT 2 exams for the subjects you missed.
Do you already know a foreign language? If so, test out using CLEP exams (1 semester of college =1 year of high school) If not, suck it up and take 2 semesters at a community college.
For Alg 2, if you know the material ask to take a placement exam. If not, learn it on your own or again suck it up and take it at the community college.
If principles of technology is the same as physics get a letter from your former school stating that.

Hi Matthew!
Might I suggest you try to attend an online college? Try the University of Phoenix online. Admissions are easier and your credits are transferrable since they are a highly accredited college-if you choose to do so. They offer an array of programs designed to meet your goals. They also have financial aid for those that qualify. And the schedules are flexible so you can work full -time and attend school around your work schedule.
