<p>OH MY GOODNESS!!! </p>
<p>This quarter's grades have put me on academic probation, i can't believe it my first quarter here!!!! off to a horrible start! my question is how do you think this will affect when i begin to apply for graduate school?</p>
<p>the better question is if you'll be able to pull your grades back up so you can actually APPLY to graduate school. most reputable programs have a GPA requirement of at least a 3.0</p>
<p>Even worse because your last 2-3 years are weighted the most by grad schools.</p>
<p>What's your major? If a natural science, you're either going to have to try really hard to raise your GPA to a 3.0 to get into a Masters and then apply to professional/doctorates, or look into post-bac schools for a few more years to raise your grade.</p>
<p>UCSD finally lets you in, and you thank them by getting D's?</p>
<p>the fast pace of the quarter system is probably a shock to the TS.</p>
<p>some important things to know:</p>
<p>just as long as your cumulative gpa isn't less than a 2.0 for three consecutive quarters then you have absolutely nothing to worry about. for example this means that you can be on academic probation for 7 consecutive quarters and have an 'academic probation' notice in your e-mail and they won't kick you out as long as you are above a 2.0</p>
<p>if you fail to have a 2.0 cumulative gpa for three consecutive quarters then you will get kicked.</p>
<p>distinction should be made between quarter gpa and cumulative gpa</p>
<p>There's also Academic Disqualification (or something like that) that you're eligible to be kicked out for one quarter of < 1.5 GPA. You have to testify against a dean or something and plead your case as to why you won't do it again etc etc etc</p>
<p>Bringing my GPA isn't something I'm concerned about. This quarter I had a lot of problems juggling my daughter around from sitter to sitter. At the beginning of the month a spot at the Daycare opened so she'll be enrolled there and that problem will be no more. </p>
<p>This isn't a normal circumstance for me so the guy who said "they let you in and this is how you thank them" You're an ass. I wasn't one of the transfers who transfered over with a simple 3.0. I worked my ass off to get here my family is sacrificing a lot. so if anyone knows how unfortunate this is it's me. </p>
<p>right now my gpa is a 1.92 (embarrassing i know) so that's why my QUESTION was directed towards how future applications will look at this minor setback NOT at how to bring it up.</p>
<p>thanks to most of you who understood what I was asking.</p>
<p>You'll probably need to disclose this info in any future apps to grad schools. As such, it probably will be seen poorly by admissions boards.</p>
<p>You wouldn't happen to be in Muir? Would You?</p>
<p>No, I'm in ERC why?</p>
<p>There was a girl in my (muir) writing class who had pretty much the same issue as you.</p>
<p>thats not true oyama. I had one quarter 3 years ago with a 0.9 gpa and I never had to testify to the dean or anything.</p>
<p>Does anyone know what happens if a student on Academic Probation does not attend the
"Academic Success Workshop"?</p>
<p>I've been told through the AP notice that attending 2 sessions, each 50 minutes long, is mandatory. Just wondering what the consequences are for not showing up.</p>
<p>I looked up the UC Senate's ruling guidelines and no where does it mention a mandatory workshop. Here is the short link: Academic</a> Senate Regulations</p>
<p>Thanks</p>

<p>There are zero consequences for not attending. Normally I would be happy to tell you whether or not it was a waste of time, but I've honestly never met anyone who's bothered to show up.</p>
<br>
<p>Are you sure that you are on academic probation? I thought the minimum GPA was dropped from a 2.0-1.80 for upper division students </p>
<br>
<p>This is something I've never heard of before and am <em>almost</em> sure is completely untrue.</p>
<p>I was wondering if anyone was put on academic disqualification, kicked out of school, appealed, talked to the dean, then was admitted again?</p>
<p>My overall gpa is 0.97 and one semester I had a .16</p>
<p>Clarification question.
I have a cumulative gpa that is over 2.0. However, this fall quarter i received under a 2.0 for my term gpa. I am not confident that my grades for this quarter are above the 2.0 needed to get me off of probation. I read in the academic senate that a student after two successive terms on academic probation is subject to academic disqualification but this is linked to cumulative gpa. I’ve figured out that even if i did badly this quarter I’ll still have over a 2.0 for my cumulative but I’m worried that I got a 1.5 this past quarter’s term gpa. How many quarters can someone be on academic probation without being subject to dismissal?</p>
