This will be quite long.
I currently have a 2.1 GPA at the start of the Fall Semester, and I am still technically considered a sophomore even though this is my third year. I started my Sophomore Year (Fall semester last year) in college with a 3.1 GPA. I failed 2 classes and I’ve dropped 3 already. I’ve only got one D+ and 2 C’s (the rest have been A’s and B’s). God willing, I’ll end this semester with a 3.4 (but it’ll bring my cumulative only to a 2.3). My question is, would it make sense to transfer? I don’t know if anyone is familiar with John Jay, but is it hard to get into? Do they do an interview? I know my GPA looks terrible, but I’ve been doing so bad because attendance will weight grades down and even though I’ve deserved nothing less than B’s, I’ll get C’s because I miss too many classes (which isn’t fair in my opinion). I just feel like if I had a chance to explain what happened they’d give me the benefit of the doubt. So should I try to transfer? And do you know of any colleges that might accept me with a 2.1-2.3? Or if any colleges that will do an interview prior to making a decision? Thanks a lot!!
