Can I redeem myself?

Yes, I think first quarter freshman tend to get lower grades than they are capable of. I am a freshman and I got a 2.7 (would be much lower if I didn’t take Psych101, got a 4.0 in that).

Also, watch your GPA. If your cumulative GPA is under 2.0 during any quarter you are put on academic probation and you have one quarter to raise it above a 2.0 or else you lose your financial aid. Since this is your first quarter at UW you will be put on academic warning. If you don’t get a 2.0+ you get put on academic probation, and then after that you lose your aid.

So:

academic warning (since you are a first quarter freshman)–> academic probation –> lose aid
