What is the name of your state? GA

Okay, heres the deal.
I am 20 yrs old, graduated in VA class of 06'. I want to go to college in GA, there are 5 colleges I am interested in attending. They are as follows:
Columbus State
Georgia Southern University
Augusta State
Valdosta State
Kennesaw State University

Now, all of these colleges require that you have college prep classes in highschool and two years of the same foreign language.

I attended 5 diffrent highschools because of moving around between parents and my moms husband being military. I Moved to VA in the middle of my junior year and VA has diffrent requirements for a CP diploma than GA, and MS. I was told I would have to stay in highschool an extra semester to earn a CP diploma b/c so many of my credits didnt count towards a cP diploma in VA. So I switched to a technical diploma and graduated with my class.

So what can i now do to get past this dilemma? I DO NOT want to attend a community college two years and transfer. I want to go to one of those 5 schools. I am trying to better my self and my chances for success and have saved money myself to do so. I find it unfair I am being disqualified for admissions because of a year of missed CP classes and not having two years of the same foerign language. I do not find this right at all, and I am asking for someone with knowledge to these types of situations to please help me and give me advice, or point me in the right direction.
Thank you very much.

Dude, you don't seem to grasp the concept of setting a goal and working toward it, and that you will have to do a little "suffering" for your achievements. (Typical for your generation, IMHO.)

You've blown off the Marines and are AWOL.:mad:

Last week you "wanted to be" a forensic pathologist, but you wondered if your dishonorable discharge would be "discrimination." :rolleyes:

Now the latest drama is that you want to get around the educational requirements of any decent school, and you don't wanna get caught up in community college. :rolleyes:

Spare us your sad, sad tale of woe. Nothing will ever be easy enough for you. The help you really need is a good swift kick in the buttocks.

Silver Plum, you have obviously missed something. All oy my post are questions correct?
I dont know about you, but I ALWAYS plan for the worst, and I ALWAYS plan for the future. Whether that future ends up continuing in the MArines, or being discharged and going to school, and what I would be studying.
I post my questions NOW to get the awnsers ill need for later. That way when the time comes, regardless of my decisions, I will know what my next step will be and how to take that step.
Your trying to make me look spoiled or foolish is only showing the amount of insight you truly have. What I dont need is a kick in my buttocks, what I need is set plans for the future along with the knowledge needed to carry out those plans.

BTW, I want to get into college TO study TO become a Forensic Pathologist IF my military service does not work out. Im sorry for taking the neccesarry steps to lay plans for my future buddy, how spoiled and foolish of me.

I do not need strangers opinions on matters pertaining to the personal choices I make affecting my life. What I need is advice on the matter at hand, hence the name of this website.
You do not know me. Your opinions are based on your own judgements of a person you have never met.
You wanna talk about someone who thinks no rules apply to them, go talk to O.J. because i am FULLY aware of my situation and the consequences that have come with my actions.

So thank you strangers for passing judgement onto me. Because you must have never been 20 yrs old before and had a setback in your life. Praise be onto you.

Yep, we've been 20. We also realized that we aren't above the law, regardless of our personal circumstances.
