You might have to go through the Appeal process and let the college know why you left and what you've changed in your life. They'll want to know that this is a priority for you now. Many colleges will not give you a transcript if you owe money, see if the college you are looking into will take an unofficial transcript until you clear up the debt. Often you can get an unofficial copy of your transcript before the balance is paid. The other suggestion I would have it talk to your Financial Aid Advisor and find out if they can do anything to help you. If you have excess in your financial aid package they might count this towards the debt you owe the school. This of course would work for the college you were in. I'm not a Financial Aid Advisor, I've just had students ask their Financial Aid Advisor if this is something they can do. It works for some others do not qualify for funding over the tuiton of the college and have to set up a payment plan. Find out if you set up a payment plan if the college will accept you back, you may have to sign something saying that you'll be sure to pay down the amount by a certain date in order to be accepted. I hope this helps if not please feel free to leave more questions and I'll get back to you. All the Best, Sophie Ryan:

I dropped out of college after being in classes for like a month. I owe the college $1,100 in classes yet to be paid, I still have my books, but I recently filled out a Transcript request and turned it in, but it's been a week now and didn't receive anything, nor a call. I assume they are holding it since I owe them money, and I can't get back into the college i'm trying to apply to, it's a college branch and it's relatively easy to get in. They just said I need the transcript from my other college i previously attended and dropped out. So I'm stuck in this situation and I wouldn't mind going back to the college I dropped out of but, would they be forgiving enough to let me back in? (academic forgiveness?) Alright, well.
