Is going to summer school going to ruin my chances for college?

I am currently re-taking a semester course because I failed it, and well I’ve been doing really well. I have an “A” in the class, and my last day is Thursday, but I’m just wondering. Will this affect my chances for college acceptance? I mean, will this show up on my transcript? Even though I did a lot better, do you think colleges will deny me now? I am a very good student, I just sort of slipped up this one time. Please someone respond, I am so worried, because I’m gonna be a senior and I want to get into a good college. Thanks.

It really depends on your school and their policy on these retake courses. Most likely, the new grade will replace the old one. In that case, you should be fine because your transcript should only show the new grade.

Again, you need to check with your school to be sure what will show up on your transcript.

This happened to me and it was alright. I was trying to finish early but I missed one class so it was crunch time. I finished summer school a week and a half before I had to be in college, and the only problem was making sure I had documentation for all my grades and credits. I was enrolled in a private college that’s is very good. I’m still paying the loans off, LOL. Just contact them to be sure of what you will need to submit and explain the situation.

Mae! Don’t worry! By retaking the class in Summer school and improving your grade the class will show the better of the 2 grades. GOOD FOR YOU. Enjoy your Senior year…and good luck!
