My son is into the program and working his butt off but enjoying it. He was a NMS and received that scholarship and the President’s Endowed. It looks like he may drop just below 3.5 cumulative GPA.
Overall, he’s done really well but his struggle was electrical which he pulled a C in one class.
My question is does anyone have experience with going on the scholarship probation and how that went. Are they pretty rigid? How much opportunity do they give the kids to pull out of it?
His next semester is only 12 hrs and no electrical so he feels pretty good about being able to have a really good Fall 22 semester.
As a side note, engineering is tough enough, but these kids have had a hell of a struggle. My son was a 2020 grad that lost the last half of his Sr. year and goes into college during Covid. It’s been tough to say the least.
but I wanted to let you know I struggled with electrical, too! I got a tutor and still bearly got through the class. I ended up graduating with high honors. There is life after EE!!
) my point - its a hard hard class.
