transferring to another university after being dropped

College Search & Selection
1

<p>I am currently an international student, studying at a reputed state university on the east coast. (junior), on a F-1 visa.</p>

<p>I had started my college education in the field of chemical engineering, and it was my first time in the US. I was overwhelmed with the kind of diverse exposure, and different approach to studying and did not perform well. My GPA had constantly been around a 2.0, mostly below. I recently switched my major to economics at the end of spring 2014, after being dropped to non-degree conditional status, which has several requirements before I got dropped from the university. One of them was that I cannot get a GPA below 2.01 in any semester while I'm enrolled in this status. I performed well over the summer, but in Fall 2014 did bad and now my semester GPA is 1.90.
I will be dropped from the university for poor academic standing as soon as it re-opens in January.</p>

<p>What are my options and chances of successfully transferring to another universities with at least most of my credits intact? Which are some of the universities that might be easier to transfer to?</p>

<p>Because of your GPA, it will be difficult to transfer to another school. You are not performing well in the university setting so why would another university offer admission to you? You might want to try a local community college to bring your grades back up and to learn how to study.</p>

<p>I have completed 3 years of college, and am looking to transfer 84 credits. Are there any universities that might put me in a probationary period to see how I perform in the first semester/year? </p>
