You should confirm that this is truly a suspension, as opposed to probation. I find it hard to believe that a student in their first session would be suspended for failing one class and doing well in one other.

Could it be suspension of financial aid? I know that most schools require a minimum GPA to maintain aid, usually something like 2.0, and your GPA is currently in the neighborhood of 1.0 . Even so, I would still expect you to be on probation for financial aid, as opposed to losing it.

Hopefully your advisor will clear this up. Sometimes students are prevented from further enrollment or aid until they meet with an advisor who will develop a plan to improve grades before the enrollment block is lifted.
