Academic disqualification help !! Probation

I am studying in my second year in USC. I was on probation at the beginning of this year. At end of this semester my average grades (GPA) is little less than 2.0.
I am sure that this will lead to academic disqualification.
The reason of low grades could be that I may not be interested in my major, one of the GE research paper was plagiarised and may be as International student, I was not use to the American education system. Although my grades have improved overall. I work extremely hard but despite by grades come low.

By December all spring admissions colleges are closed.

What are my options??

Can I do a non degree course at UC Berkeley which earns a full credit and take a transfer in fall semester? Is this acceptable?

Can I appeal? Will USC take me back after One semester? or apply for another University for fall?

Please advice and help !!!

Thanks

Your post is in the wrong category. Not sure if you are at USC in California or South Carolina. Go to the school specific thread and post your question there.
