Actually, if you end up going back to the same school you could do a petition for reinstatement. That works if you have a serious reason like a death in the family or hospital stay, psychological issues, etc. \n\nIf you are trying to go to another school, its an uphill battle. But it can be done. I am pretty sure that if you can complete one or two semesters successfully and petition, financial aid will most likely accept you back. \n\nIf not then you can always try a loan from a bank or scholarships if you have the time to hunt down the right ones. It is true that thousands, even millions of dollars go unclaimed from scholarships.

No - you will be fine.  \n\nThey look at your progress over the entire 4 years, not just one grade given in your senior year.  A 3.7 is fantastic, they won't care.\n\nI had a 2.7 and I still got into college and did very well.  I graduated with a 3.5!

My parents didn't help me. first i went to a junior college and financial aid paid for some of it, i got a job at the school but mostly i borrowed money- loans. Now i go to a community college and it's about 2,200 per semester plus about 400 for books, lucky me financial aid and tap pays for it. Maybe it's too late to apply for a scholarship but not for grants, try getting your GPA up and try to get a scholarship for the next semester. Or get a job to help you out. But one thing is for sure, education is important and you can always pay you're loans back after you graduate and if you don't find a job after wards they will defer (meaning you don't have to pay it) until you get a job. So i say, go to school.

You certainly shouldn't bump yourself off. School is important, but your life is much more important than that.\n\nYou should take a step back and consider whether school is the place you should be. If you are failing all of your classes, then either you don't want to do the necessary work, or you aren't able to do the necessary work. It's possible that you could turn things around and start doing well - but it seems clear you'll need to re-evaluate what you are doing in school and how you do your work.\n\nIt seems more likely that there is some other path you should be following - whether that is work or family or something entirely different is something you'll have to explore on your own.\n\nBest of luck to you, and God bless.

I recommend withdrawing, however, this actually depends somewhat on your current GPA.  If it's really high, failing may actually be the better option for you - financially, anyway.  Your transcript will be less pretty, but if you can fail all your classes this semester and still keep your GPA around a 2.5 or better, then this may be the better route to take.  However, if it's going to bring it down to a less than a 2.5, withdraw from the classes.  It will cost you far more in the long run to graduate with less than a 3.0 (as far as job opportunities and salaries go), and it would be very difficult to bring it back up after such a disastrous semester - also, you run the risk of being suspended if it runs too low, which usually means no more financial aid until you can bring it back up, and you have to sit out at least one semester.

Let's see, you're missing out on a good education, the school could consider you truant and bust both you & your parents.\n\nOh, here's one a friend of mine said the other day in reference to her daughter.....poor or no education means terrible job which means living with her parents for the rest of her life.

Well, you graduated from college and you're still unemployed. You're supposed to be making something out of yourself right now. People would kill to get into college and get started on their career.\n\nA college graduate without a job, people who aren't as educated with you have a job. You kind of come off as a bum.\n\n[edit]\nHaving good grades and coming from a good college doesn't mean anything if you're unemployed. Your grades aren't going to give you a place to live or pay the bills.

It will affect your ability to get federal loans, the school could also opt to expel you but that probably depends on your specific situation.  Try keeping your nose clean from now on

I do not know about your act score but your GPA is high for you to easily enter college. You should also be able to get scholarships to pay your way through college. I got into college without any problems and my GPA was a 3.80 on a scale with 4.0 being the highest GPA I could get.

If you go to extra classes, you're going to need even more money.  I would get a job and go to school part time if that's an option..or get a job and save until you can afford to go back to school, but make sure you do that..education is priceless.

I think that someone like you would be the better student, and looked at better than the first.  When colleges look at grades and courses, they want to know that you know what you can handle.  They want good GPAs.  Great grades that keep you in the top of your class will get you into college.  What will help even more is if you went a step above just classes and participated in activities.  A person who just had great grades will not look as good to a college as someone who does well and has involved themselves in other activities, especially volunteering.  If you have that as well, then you are a shoe in.

College isn't for everyone.  \n\nThat said, you also have the perfect opportunity to explore things that you like.  \n\nYou say you like painting and psychology?\n\nWell why not look into art theraphy?  \nYou probably aren't doing well in school because you aren't focused on anything.  \nI understand that as I was the same way.  I took a year off and after being in the crappy job market I went back to school.  \n\nI've got my degree now, but still don't have a decent job making a decent wage.  However, college was fullfilling for me and I don't regret it.  It just hasn't helped me in the current job market.  \n\nTake the time to explore things you are interested in, or take some time off because if you can't focus in school and you are failing your classes you are probably wasting your time right now.

I think it's better to show colleges that you can handle advanced classes than to take all easy classes and get A's.\n\nAs for your friend, a 4.6 on a 4.0 scale means nothing.  She's have to convert it to the 4.0 scale when she applies for college.  Hint: the highest gpa you can have on a 4.0 scale is a 4.0.

Maybe you can sneak in if someone drops out? Lots of people drop out for various reasons but you should contact the uni and find out some more information ;-)

Quite possibly, NO. This will depend a bit on what your University and State require as "good academic standing". Generally speaking they are likely to require a 2.0 on a 4.0 scale or better. If you do not meet that, you may still be able to have temporary eligibility on a probationary level. Meaning, you will be placed on academic probation until you reach 2.0 or better. During that time if you continue to slip, you will likely lose all eligibility. \n\nContact your financial aid office for specifics for your location. Meanwhile, you should start taking a good look at yourself and your study habits that have brought you to this point. College life is great for having a good time, but eventually you have to come out the other side and make something of yourself.\n\nGood Luck

It can hardly be true. BUT, it depends the system of your school. Normally, the system for GPA = sum of point of the grade (say A=4.0)x no. of credits of the course/ total credits. So, in you take much more credits next semester than last semester, then you can help your poor GPA of last semester. Besides, some schools have different weightings on different semesters. Let's say freshmen yr is 100%, sophomore counts for 120%, junior 150% etc (just a rough idea). This system is based on the ideas that the level of difficulty gradually increase so the grades at higher level should be taken more consideration.

I very much doubt it, sorry.  If I were you, if you want to go to school, focus on school, not broken dreams.
