Denied Admission to UMPI

[midnite123]

If their entire rejection is based on the single "F" grade, especially if it was a long time ago, I'd appeal the decision. This is the kind of thing that I'd expect a dean or registrar to reverse if given a valid reason to.

I'd write my request explaining any extenuating circumstances. For example, if you were sick, or had a death or illness in the family, or you were 18 and not really ready to start your education, etc...  Be sure to express how committed you are to the process going forward. If you have any certifications or professional accomplishments that would reflect well on your ability to be a successful student, mention them. Assuming you've followed the formula here and have a large number of alt credits, mention them, too.

Worst that can happen is that they say no.

Great Advice!!!
