3.5 GPA, but there is an F in my transcript. How will it affect my transfer chances? (Reposted in the proper forum. Sorry I did not pay close attention)
Hi people,
Being an international student, I did not fully know the academic rules of the American universities. So, during my first semester in college, I did not like one of the courses becuase of the instructor (1 credit), so I stopped attending, thinking that it would be dropped automatically (foolish I know). I was shocked to see an F on my transcript. I tried all ways possible to remove it, but no luck.
Nevertheless, I managed to pull off a 3.5 GPA now. I am thinking of transferring to BU or U of R. Will that F affect my chances in getting accepted?
I must also mention that I am a Sophomore, and I also retook the course and managed to get an A
