I’m only familiar with the USA regional accreditation process of schools which this doesn’t sound like, so I’ll have to ask questions about the rules in your system:
To study there again, I’ll have to go through regular admission procedure again, but it’s too late to sign up for next year.
Okay its too late to go through the regular admissions procedure for the school you studied at, have you confirmed its also too late to go through the regular admissions process at every other school your original school accepts transfer credits from?
If at least one school would let you go through the regular admissions process (not try to transfer into that 2nd school), then just attend that 2nd school taking different courses you need for your degree earning As or Bs grades, then transfer those newly gained credits back to your 1st school. So not this year, but next year go through the regular admissions process of your 1st school.
The point is, they won’t even accept the courses I already passed (which are all below B except for English), because this rule is just applied universally. So it would be easier to re-take what I had until now since I already know something.
In this case, idea 2 would probably make more sense since I also know the instructors tend to give out the same assignments between different years.
Unless you meant to attend an easier college with the required courses.
But also it is too late. The only colleges taking students at this time of year are ones that have to do 2nd rounds due to low numbers, which very much is nothing IT-related.
Anyway, bigger issue is I’d have to pay for 2 extra years (they also don’t allow admission into a higher year).
That one is also funny. There’s no official list. The only requirement is A/B grade. If that is met, I can send a request to have those results accepted along with the courses’ syllabi, and then I’ll see based on their response.

Who cares if they don’t accept courses you’ve already passed. You’re not planning on graduation from 2nd school. You want to graduate from 1st school. When regular admissions open up again in the future for 1st school, you go there and transfer the credits in you earned at and 2nd school. Your prior 1st school credits (below As and Bs) will still be at 1st school so you won’t have to worry about them being accepted as transfer credits because you’d not be transferring them in from outside as the those low grade credits are already inside.
Do you have nothing bu IT-related credits you have to earn for you degree? You’re completely done with 100% of your Math, History, Art, and Science credits no related to IT? If you have any of those non-IT credits you still need to earn, thats what you can do this year at 2nd school. Next year you can go back to 1st school and work on IT related credits again.
Well I guess this is one area the USA is better. There are agreed standards that allow for nearly seamless transfer of student’s credits between large groups of universities and colleges.
Okay, so take courses at 2nd school, do well in 2nd school classes, and send the request to have those credits accepted at 1st school next year.
Otherwise it sounds like your best choice is to give up on school this year, and truly commit yourself next year. Any chance you have enough IT experience to get a junior role so you can at least be growing in your field while you’re out of school?
That is what my post was about. The people at study department at 1st school told me they won’t accept grades below B, including what I already earned at 1st school. They just won’t count when I go there again, it’s treated the same as transfer.
In case of 2nd school, basically any other college would most likely accept any lower passing grades.
That would be no, unfortunately.

Something is missing here.
Are they saying that [C and below is a failing grade] for every person that took that class forcing each of those people to retake the class? Or does the [C and below is a failing grade] only for students that didn’t score high enough to continue attending the school and the act they are telling you is your only path to rejoin the school by re-applying through the admissions process is the trigger for [C and below is a failing grade] for those classes?
