<p>I graduated from high school in 2008 at age 16 and started attending a small college in NY. I was majoring in Business Admin. About a year into the program my family and I found out that I was being treated for a condition I did not have. Tests were done, but since my physical and blood work showed no abnormalities, I was diagnosed with major depression. It was really a blood condition. I had been taking MAJOR dosages of medication for the depression and it really ruined things for me since I didn't have depression. </p>
<p>I had a severe break last September and took a leave of absence. I was put on probation for dropping below the completion rate due to all the issues I was facing.</p>
<p>I moved back to Miami a few months ago and began attending community college in May. The probationary period transferred over. I hope to transfer to a 4-yr college and major in Biomedical Engineering (possibly tissues and cells) with a premed track.</p>
<p>How would having been placed on probation effect my chances of getting into Columbia, Boston U or even FIU and UMiami?</p>
<p>My current GPA at my school is 4.0 and my cumulative GPA is a 3.35. I've taken four classes so far and can only take 9 credits in the fall due to my probation.</p>
<p>My HS GPA was 3.81
I was home schooled and designed my own rigorous independent study program.
