<p>I began my freshman year in a university last year for the 2012-2013 school year. No excuses, I didn't get good grades, failed to meet the S.A.P, and lost my financial aid. They told me I could regain eligibility if I raised my g.p.a to at least a 2.0 but I would have to pay out of pocket. It was to expensive so I transferred to a community college and I'm paying those classes out of my own pocket. My question is if I raise my g.p.a at the community college this year will I regain my eligibility for financial aid next year?</p>
<p>You need to contact YOUR college. Each school has its own policies and procedures for SAP. </p>
<p>In my limited experience…many schools will allow CC courses. Did you inquire about those before you signed up for them? Call your college and see what they say.</p>
<p>Keep in mind that when you transfer those credits from community college (or any other school), you will only be transferring the credits. The GPA does not transfer. Your GPA at your first school will remain unchanged. You will most likely have to raise your GPA to a 2.0 at the school where you lost your financial aid.</p>
<p>The important issue here is not that the O/P “lost financial aid.”</p>

<p>I hate to be brutally honest, but if you need to raise your grades to even get to a 2.0, then it’s not an issue that you “didn’t get good grades and it’s not a financial aid issue.</p>
<p>You didn’t even get to the level of pretty poor grades.</p>
<p>As I said, I’m just looking at the facts here.</p>
<p>If you’re not able to maintain even a C average in college, my advice is to look within yourself, have an honest discussion with a guidance counselor and with your parents, evaluate everything and come up with a viable plan.</p>
<p>Remember, (a) college isn’t for everybody and (b) some students benefit from a year away to reassess and to get focused.</p>
<p>It happens a lot. Good luck!</p>

You might have to transfer to another 4-year school.</p>
<p>transferring to another, 4-year he will still have the same problem?
The problem is that he lost FA due to poor grades.
CC is good for lower division courses and finishes ge, because of the low cost, some colleges even reccommend you get 60-70 credits before transferring.</p>
