<p>I posted this in the college chances forum to, but I need all the advice/responses I can get.</p>
<p>So I am a senior at UCI who was working toward an economics degree but I consistently failed the math and economics courses. It was completely my own fault but I was going through so much including struggling with depression (which runs in my family), family problems, taking courses for business analysis at UC extension, and working a job. My family has also been dealing with financial problems and my dad was recently let go. </p>
<p>I was placed on Academic Probation last quarter and I tried really hard to fix it but I still did poorly. I was too distracted and miserable and focusing was a really hard thing for me. I knew that I did really horribly so I went to talk to my counselor and she told me that it was very possible that I would be disqualified and in the meantime consider different majors because economics was not working for me.</p>
<p>I have been clearing out all the distractions, getting healthier and in shape to fight my depression, have made a physical appointment to discuss it with my doctor, and am taking a break from the extension classes to focus only on school this quarter, but right now I am in a very scary place.</p>
<p>Yesterday I got my disqualification notice. I sent an email to the director of the undergrad affairs center and was told I was out of chances and was definitely disqualified. I am so terrified right now. I don't know what my options are. I don't want to leave UCI, I really do love this damn school despite how much I've been struggling. I want to take classes through access UCI and work towards another major and re-enter the university as a student but I haven't found any information of anyone else doing the same on here so I was wondering if anyone else went through a similar situation?</p>
<p>My overall gpa is at 1.7 right now, I know it's really bad. I know that this new major I want to work towards is definitely more me, but it was hard letting go of economics because it interested me and my parents have always pushed me to go into that field. I just have done so poorly in the classes though, so that's no longer an option for me.</p>
