RainbowUnion, don't they seal school transcripts in an envelope and put a seal on it and if one opens it then it becomes null and void?

That’s true, but it still needs to come directly from the school, usually, to prevent any possible tampering. That’s how it’s always worked when I needed my transcripts - high school and college. It’s always a pain in the butt.

I didn't know that.

Yes. And they certainly wouldnt take them the way AssP thinks they will, if he intends to send them himself. How does the school know he didnt use some computer skills to just manufacture them?

RainbowUnion, I don't get it. If it is in a special sealed envelope then doesn't this special seal on the envelope guard against this type of fraud and deception since by opening it? Unless what you're saying is only the addressee is allowed to open it and if ASS-P is the addressee only he can open it and if the school opens it if it is addressed to him it becomes null and void. Is that what you're getting at?

Not if its not mailed from the school itself.

Let's say it is mailed to ASS-P and he doesn't open it at all and takes it to the college. Why would it be void if it isn't opened? I don't get it. How can he commit fraud if he doesn't open it and it has that special seal?

It doesn’t matter. Transcripts are only ever considered official if they’re mailed directly to the college. I suppose someone could somehow get ahold of a seal and make tampered transcripts look official.

It’s really just bureaucratic red tape, but it’s what almost everyone goes through who goes to college.

Because all that other stuff can be faked too. Get it now?

Things that have been established in this thread:

1. ASS-P's transcripts exist.

2. No one can get ASS-P's transcripts except for him (which we already knew).

3. Transcripts are only considered "official" if mailed from his high school directly to the college he is applying for (which I already knew and said as much further up in this thread).

This now concludes the "transcript drama." The ball is currently in ASS-P's court, and it depends entirely on him as to what happens next. The members of this forum have "helped" to the extent that they are able being non-related, anonymous, internet people.

And his response to your very correct statement will be: "WHY DO YOU EXPECT ME TO DO THIS MYSELF? I'M A CRIPPLE!! ! YOU ARE HITLER, POLPOTT, CALIGULA, NERO, BIN LADEN, DAVROS, AND THE SMOKING MAN COMBINED IN ONE!! !!"

And then he will post more Never going to Uni threads as he has done for the last 11 years.

...Regarding the edibles, I may have neglected to mention that I also bought some of these super-cheap pot lozenges.
From the amount of Mary Jane edibles I have consumed as of yet (Not a whole lot.)...I have tended to get a rather woozy high, a " pool balls, and maybe pool cues too, dropped on my head " one. It did seem to cut down/cover up back/trunk pain. I had to go out and go around a couple of times after I took some weed, so I couldn't even really lie down & enjoy drifting off :( .
I mentioned the books/pubs I splurged some out of the NYS money. Not that much in mass, probably wouldn't fill two comics long boxes (they weren't all comics - even some books without illustrations! :lol: - just a measurement) - the consideration that they might get thrown away occurred to me :cry: . I've certainly lost all of my stuff before in my life :( . I have clothes there, too, and a " secondary " phone, and good in the refrigerator - maybe not the Alice Waters Whole Foods " nicest " - some Basic pickles, Walgreens' brand frozen but already cooked chicken wings, slosh (soda, whatever). It"s a week I think I've been gone, I don't suppose they've spoiled by now?
Anyway, all you people who despise me for in the past having in the past asked for help and for having questioned the sacred holy admissions-officers order of things can shriek " HA HA HA! YOU DESERVE IT! " :cry:

What are you asking for help with here? Storing your pot brownies? This post makes no sense.
