NO — because lying in this environment is FRAUD & can get you kicked to the curb (even in mid-semester & owing back all the money to pay for everything for that semester) as well as possibly criminally charged (if lying also helped you get Fin Aid)
It is very easy for them to find the info… especially if you were on Fin Aid.. they will see the history of your Fin Aid use — even if you did not use Fin Aid, schools have shared data bases & can see where you have been enrolled in the past
in addition to being kicked out of school for FRAUD on your application…. there will be an indication.. a permanent mark…. that other schools as well as all future potential employers will see…. that you were guilty of FRAUD… how many jobs do you think you will get with FRAUD on your record?
In your mind this is just a little lye that would help you get a fresh start… when in reality is it a life-changing epically bad decision
You have to tell them. If you receive Financial Aid and the school doesn’t know about your previous GPA, that could count as fraud. Also, you are suppose to tell them about your previous school (doesn’t matter if you did well there or not). Sorry
This type of fraud can cause your degree to be revoked even years after it is granted.
Don’t do it.
