When it says provide all academic history, for every school you attended. I was previous at a post-secondary institution for health sciences, fresh out of highschool, unfortunately due to mental health problems and a Concussion, I was left with a first year of a GPA between 2.8 and 3.1, Now 3 years later, I am at a different Institute studying Science and Engineering with a GPA of 4.175 and almost all high 90’s in each course. Will I have to apply for special consideration due to my bad 1st year?

hello!
since i’m not really sure what you’re applying to, it’s really hard for me to answer this question, unfortunately!
my advice would be to get in touch with the admissions office of whatever program or institution you’re interested in, and see what they say. after all, some programs (if you’re talking about graduate school) will only really look at your last two years of studies.
sorry i can’t be more helpful! what i’ve heard is that (again, if you’re talking about graduate school) most applications will allow you to explain any anomalies in your academic record. for example, you could throw a sentence in about your rough first year in a personal statement. there’s no way to know for sure about this, though, unless you speak to someone in admissions.
anyway, i’m rooting for you and really proud of you for doing so well in your current program. your GPA is wildly high, and it looks like you’ve really bounced back from your challenges in first year.
if you’re not done your fall semester yet, best of luck with the rest of it!
be Boundless,
