In terms of not omitting an F on a transcript...I honestly think that depends.  I have, for instance, 2 credits from almost 20 years ago in applied voice and applied violin.  I don't have F's in either one, but it honestly almost didn't occur to me to submit that transcript, because it's two piddly classes that didn't seem particularly relevant. In fact, I'm not sure whether I submitted it when I applied at the school for my AAS or not -- those credits literally didn't apply anywhere in the degree program.  I don't think it would have been "fraud" for me to have not sent that transcript over, even if I had an F in either or both of those classes.  (I mean, how do they even prove that you intentionally omitted something and didn't just *forget* about it?)  If, on the other hand, someone had 2 semesters worth of traditional undergrad someplace, and didn't submit it because it had some bad grades on it, that would seem much more suspect.

It's a pretty clear statement that is not open for interpretation when a school tells you to list and send transcripts for every school attended. The only gray area is whether or not they want transcripts for a school you didn't attend, but earned credits at (TECEP, Uexcel, CSU Global CBE, etc.).

When you apply to correctional or law enforcement jobs, and they ask you to list every school attended, they're not going to accept, "I only took two courses at this school, so I didn't think I had to list it." You've shown that you're either dishonest or have poor reading comprehension skills and are incapable of following directions. When I wasn't sure, I asked a recruiter if I needed to list schools where I wasn't a matriculated student and only took a course/test/PLA for transfer.

If they specify that, then sure.  (Although I'm still not sure how they'd demonstrate whether you omitted something intentionally or just forgot.  Or requested it from the school and they dropped it through the cracks and you didn't notice.)  It seems like a law enforcement-type job would find it more important to have every single one on file, regardless of relevance, than most other fields.  Kind of a form of background check.
