I plan to go back to school to study engineering at 23. I left university a few years back in my 2nd year because of personal issues, general immaturity, and a poor work ethic. Because I was studying something non-STEM and will now study STEM, I'm going to start at a community college and then transfer elsewhere.

Will my past transcript from a few years ago affect my GPA on a transfer transcript? Like if I get a 4.0 in community college and want to transfer elsewhere to finish bachelor's, is my GPA from another college 3 years ago going to mess up my chances, or is there no way for admissions to see that if I don't include it? I couldn't find an answer to this anywhere online

Your transcript will follow you, and you can't just not include it. There's a number of things you can do though. Try to figure out if you can take remedial classes for those classes you did bad in. If they're transferable between your community college and the university you were at, you can take the same class over again at community college and they will average the grade for that class. If you're not sure, talk to your old university and try to work out an agreement.

The other good news things are
- transfer admissions could be less competitive than standard admissions (easier to get in on the whole)
- most universities take at least a little bit of a "holistic approach" when looking at grades. So if they see that you didn't do well, then took a long break, and now you're getting straight As, they'll take that into consideration during admissions.

However, you must to include your transcript. If you don't, it's "lying about a transcript" (by omission) and will get you kicked out of school. The most important thing you can do now is do very well in community college this time around and mitigate some of the damage you did before through remediation.
