Hello all,

Well, the semester is over at my community college and I was accepted to MSU a month or so back.

As of right now I"m planning everything and put my deposit down for classes.

I couldn’t get into the Business college, and rightfully so, as I was currently Econ 102 and Acc 102.

Well, because my partner in Econ dropped the class, didn’t tell me, and didnt bring in the presentation worth 20% of our grade, I got a very poor grade on the project which brought my final grade to a B-, or 82.8% or GPA for the class of a 2.7.

Eli Broad guidelines for acceptance, are that you must have at least a 3.0 in each of the following, with a 3.2 GPA overall with the classes.

Acc 101 - Final grade is a 3.7
Acc 102 - 3.7
Econ 101 - 3.7
Econ 102 - 2.7
CIS (computers) - 4.0

My question is, am I going to have to retake Econ, and delay entrance for another year, just because of this one class?

I can get a written letter of reccomendation from faculty members, business ones specifically, because I’m working with the Business department to help develop the entrepreneur program at our local college, as I have experience because I own my own business.

What can I do? What should I do? I can not believe this one bad class is going to completely, and excuse my language, **** me over.
