So it was my first semester in college and I finished with a 1.23 GPA…yes I know not good. I was taking 14 credits but I failed my bio course which was 4 credits. Meaning I only completed 10 credits. I really don’t know what to do because I don’t think fafsa is going to cover next semester…I screwed up and I really don’t know how to tell my parents. What should I do? How can I convince them I’ll do better this year…
They have to take your word for it and they’ll likely give you one semester to prove yourself. You will have to perform or else return home and attend community college. CC would be okay: saves money, the competition is easier, and you will get your general ed classes out of the way. Consider getting tutors to help you: wyzant.com Best wishes.
