I have been accepted at Cal and UNC. Cal used a self-reported transcript on which I lied about my arts credit. I believe they require a full year or one credit, I have half but conveniently "extended" my half (said i took two semesters, not one) to a full as it was self reported. They require an official final transcript by July 15th. I am worried that they will cancel admittance upon seeing that. If they do cancel my admittance, i'm afraid I will not be able to attend college because it will be to late to enroll at UNC. The alternative is for me to go ahead and enroll at UNC, with the nice gift-basket (money, programs) that are willing to give me. This would be $300 total that includes intent to register and housing deposit. The issue I have with this route is that in case Cal does not find out or does not care and I attend, UNC will have wasted many resources (not to mention I will be $300 poorer). I really want to attend Cal. Anybody have any advice (NOT CRITICISMS)?

You should contact the admissions office. If you are up front with them, they may like your honesty and let you stay. They will have the option of canceling your admission when your official transcript arrives and they discover that you lied to them about your academic credit. Your best bet is to write them a heartfelt letter about why you did what you did and if given the chance how you will be an excellent addition to the Cal community. Tell them about what you will do as a student to show them that you are worthy of admission.
