Whoops. This is what I get for flunking out last quarter lol. One more fuck up and I lose all my financial aid (about $5,000 per quarter) permanently no if, ands or buts. That would effectively prevent me from going to college at all. If I so much as get anything below a B in any of my classes from now til August that counts as a fuckup. Withdraws included

Yeah I didn't realize that my college was so strict. I withdrew from 2 classes and they pulled my money away. Makes sense though, I guess they don't wanna fund people who aren't putting in the work. Luckily I have the aid back now but I'm kinda spooked.

Thanks fam. Here's to straight A's for the rest of my associate's degree

You could file an appeal as long as you come close to making it back in good standing. Just incase you get like 1 random C, maybe 2. If you get a nice enough advisor theyll go to bat for you.

Community college its easier to get it accepted as they need retention numbers, universities its a bit harder but if you did good at first then dropped off they get a bit more forgiving.

Just dont try sob stories, admit it was your fault as they like that more even if youre dealing with stuff.

I'm not sure about that, and I definitely don't want to assume I can either. This is an exact quote from my appeal letter:
"Failure to meet these terms and conditions will result in the suspension of aid without the option to appeal. If a repayment is owed, it must be paid in full before registering for classes or ordering official transcripts"

Thanks for the tip on the sob stories, I hadn't thought much about that before. I need to make sure I'm advocating for myself and taking responsibility. I promised to do so in my appeal. I think the letter from my psychiatrist helped too.

I plan on taking a year off after I finish my associates. Where should I go @ReggieBush09 ?

Right now I'm getting an associates transfer degree. Ultimately I plan on majoring in Statistics, which is helpful for scholarships since I'm considered a low income woman in STEM ^^

Ironic you are in for numbers and being threatened with numbers.

I know you're smart.
Keep your head down and get through this Harpie.
