Big 4 Recruiting...Am I Screwed?
Hey everyone, first post here and I really need some help. I am at a fairly well-recruited state school about to start a 2 yr macc program with hopes of landing big 4. I transferred from a cc where I had a 2.8 gpa, and when I went to do my bachelors I completed the remaining 60 credits with a 3.8+ (my 2.8 was not calculated as part of my new gpa)
Now, I am about to start my macc and I am afraid what will happen if recruiters want to see my transcripts. If they ask for my transcripts for the school I got my undergrad degree from it will be obvious that there must have been another school. Is it common practice to ask for transcripts from all schools attended? Has anyone had a similar experience. Thanks.
You aren't lying though; your GPA is still technically 3.8. Focus on getting a few offers in case some back out when they find out you were special ed for a while. Don't bother focusing on this, its too late to change now.

On your resume, you don't have to put this on there. Try to delay sending transcripts as long as possible. If they like you in the interviews, the only way you can get screwed is if you lie. I doubt it will ding you before you get an offer. What you've been doing recently is far more important. Try not to sweat it, it's in the past and there's nothing you can do about it. Apply to some middle tier and regional firms too just in case.
Dude, you're fine. If they want to see your old school's transcripts, they'll ask. I am very doubtful that they'll do this.
TDSWIM, I only put my official 3.8 undergrad gpa on my resume. It's true that I am not lying and if asked I would definitely tell the truth about my cc gpa. Any one have any experience with the big 4 or their recruiting process, even though I cant' do anything to change my situation, I cant help but be a nervous wreck about this.
