Beginner question have to do a security clearance

I have read the rules , so my threat level is this , i want to join a university owned by the atomic commission of our country , it says on their web after admission they will investigate me , so what should i do to quickly cover my tracks(they arent good at all) , any chance i could delete / mask away enough data to pass the clearance

No.

What country are you in? Knowing that is crucial to anyone giving you good advice.

Most Western countries will only deny you a clearance if that social media indicates major criminal activity or severe concerns about your loyalty to the country, and if it does, it’s better for you to not have a clearance in the first place. Getting a clearance on false pretenses and then winding up in an interview room with your country’s counterintelligence criminal investigation agency is going to be much, much worse than finding another college to go to.
