What happens if you miss a semester of college?
Yes but only if she gets her application in and transcripts sent in time for the term she wants to enter there, with application processing it can take anywhere from a month to several. The college you want to transfer to should have information online about when they have application deadlines and when you'd hear from them, if not just shoot out an email to admissions or call them up and ask about how long the application review takes. Worst case she may be able to take classes at the school in PA as a non-degree seeking student, then when all the paperwork arrives/deadline approaches for spring apply again and now she is already taking classes/or a course there. Missing a semester by itself does nothing but having financial aid may complicate things if you are not 'making satisfactory academic progress' if she has financial aid at her current school she should speak to someone there or do some research on it. Financial aid is usually review during the beginning of the fall term or near the end of the summer, so if you missed a fall term you could make up the credits you are expected to complete per year during the summer term or by taking more than 12 credits in the spring term, if that was the case. Not enrolling in a course or in college won't hurt her grades but as I said it may cause issues with financial aid, the only thing that has an effect on grades is taking courses and how you do in them.
Is it bad if i skip one semester from college?
No, it's not bad. It's a great idea to make sure you're ready to go to college before going. You're still young, so don't worry about not starting when your friends are. And keep in mind, you're now going to college. You should be making your own decisions based on what's best for you and not what your friends are doing or not doing. Besides, it's just one semester. Even if it's a year it's still okay because when you do attend you'll be ready and will have your resources and finances available to you. Good luck.
Can I transfer quarter credits to a semester-based college?
While the transfer of credits is always is up to the discretion of the university you're transferring to, generally the answer would be no. You haven't covered all the material necessary to warrant a granting of the 101 credit, and they won't give you part of it.Your best bet would be to take at least 1B before you leave your current university (whether that means staying longer or trying to pick that class up by doing summer or distance courses is something you'll have to research). Your other option is to simply take 101 when you arrive at your new university, which should be fairly easy because you've already done 2/3 of it.
What would happen if I left college for a semester? Would I still be able to go back and pick up where I left off?
The answer is typically yes, your earned degree credits don’t disappear they remain on your transcript for good or for bad. Indeed, you can officially request a leave of absence for a specified period of time. You will have to explain why you are taking the leave from your academic program so make sure it is a necessary action. Some reasons might include a family issue such as a sick parent; insufficiency of funds to pay for your tuition and other required college costs; a military obligation or deployment; volunteering for a special cause such as a disaster at home or abroad; or a once in a lifetime opportunity to work with someone of great renown; or you just need a mental break from studies. Establish a set time when you will be returning and don’t ask for an extension. Otherwise, you are good to go, provided you have a good reason. And, when you plead poverty some kind hearted person at the college or university just might be able to find some money so you can continue your studies.

Got 2 Ds 1st semester of community college?
It's a good idea to investigate whether or not you can retake those same classes and have the new grade replace the old. It may or may not be possible. But if it is, DO THIS. Make sure you meet with a college adviser to discuss your options. Ask a lot of questions. Do your own research, too, because they can't know everything. But an adviser at your college is the place to start to get the very best answer. Bottom line, if you got Ds because you didn't apply yourself, then stop screwing around. If you did apply yourself and tried your hardest, asking questions in class, visiting your instructor during office hours, participating in study sessions, using free tutors if the college provides them, and still just didn't get it, then take a different approach, either to school or to life. Maybe it's better to learn a trade instead?
Transfer from a CSU to a Community College?
You don't have to tell CSU anything. You have every right to attend any institution for which you qualify. What will happen is that the community college will evaluate your transcript from CSU and decide which, if any, of the credits they can apply towards a degree. They will put you through their enrollment process, and you will take classes there just like everyone else. If they accept some of your credits, you will skip the classes which those credits represent. If not, your CSU credits may apply toward a four year degree at another college later on. Take your CSU transcript to the admissions office of the community college you are interested in, and they will guide you from there.
I’m in semester 3 of college for a bachelor’s degree. Would it be possible to transfer my credits to a tech college and get an associate’s in 1 semester?
If you switched from a four year college program to a junior college or tech school and wanted to get a two year associates degree in one semester, you would likely have satisfied the general education requirements with equivalent courses in English and mathematics, but there is typically a sequence of more advanced courses in the specialization, and even if you could manage to pass “Introduction to X,” “Advanced X,” “Lab in X,” and “Specialized Subtopic in X” they might not all be offered every semester. If the Associates degree overlaps with your college courses, you might be able to meet with the instructor and get permission to skip the prerequisite course. They might give you credit for a comparable university course. They might want a certain number of semester hours takrn their institution, more so if they are a private, for profit school.
