Hi guys,
So currently I’m a freshman student and last fall i did not get a 2.00 gpa so i got admitted to academic probation.
However in this semester I am so afraid and i feel like i will most likely get admitted to academic probation again and I am scared that I will be dismissed from college.
I got 2 C’s and 1 D as well as a S for my last semester course.
I really don’t know what should I do. I tried to improve this semester because I know in my first semester I just couldn’t get used to the system and college life. And I know that the subject that I got D on is the subject for the major that I want to do.
The school will have a policy book that will definitely exactly what will happen. I would guess that dismissal is probably it.
You were given a wake up call being put on probation. Why didn’t you ask for more help. Too late now. Sounds like a good dose of the “real world” is coming your way. You can get s job and work it a while and then try college again later. If you do try college again, you will need to figure out why you didn’t do well and fix it. Not enough here to know why. I know people who went back to college a second time and did do well and then had very successful careers.
I was also placed on academic probation in the fall 2017! Upon spring 2018 I’ve changed my tactics of how to study at a four year university. coming from a CC it was a hard transition, but in the end it was all the same where I was at my Cc. Asking for help, going to Office hours and make friends that would able to help me on lab reports or homework. I guess it’s just too late now for you.
You cannot major in something where you got a D in a foundational course. It could be that your major and its courses aren’t well suited to your strengths.
What courses did you take last and this semester?
What did you do differently this time compared to last?
