low gpa

when I was in high school I took two college courses as dual enrollment student and my gpa was 2.2 and when i graduated from highschool and started off in college my gpa dropped to 1.69 because of several issues plus my depression and so I couldn’t take the overload from college and work and home, anyway how can I raise my gpa to be 2.5?

  1. See a doctor (psychiatrist) and get your depression addressed.
  2. If you are diagnosed with depression, see if you can get a retroactive medical withdrawal from the semester you were in college and had depression. Talk to the Dean of Students about this.
  3. Try to concentrate on one thing at a time. If you need to work, can you work full time and save for college? And then when you go to college, go full time?
  4. If you have to work full time, then take less college courses. Take them at your Community College.
  5. Try to do well in those courses. here are tips: http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-life/1920853-college-is-a-step-up-from-hs-16-tips-on-doing-well-in-college.html
  6. Keep doing well (As and Bs)in your classes and your GPA will get up.
