Error on transcript from 2001
Posted: Fri May 25, 2012 1:37 pm
I'm a non-trad 0L who graduated undergrad in '01.
Never had the need to examine my UG transcripts before now, and I have noticed an error from Fall quarter of '99. I was listed as having an F in a 2 credit class. It was a long time ago, but I have never received an F before in my life and instantly knew something was wrong. I went to the school office and they said that as soon as graduation occurs, grades lock up. Two staff members I talked to implied that it was an error, but insisted that nothing could be done. Has anyone encountered this situation before? The difference would mean a 3.47 GPA vs. a 3.51 GPA. Not devastating, but crossing that 3.5 threshold would significantly improve my application. Am I worrying for nothing? I'll probably just have to accept it, but I hate having an F on my record that is simply an error. Any thoughts out there in TLSland on what can be done?
