<p>Mitdu, My S2 (who I posted about earlier in this thread) also attends a large state u. in NC (not the same as your S).
When he was put on Academic probation after the first semester, I prepared myself for the possibility of more of the same by looking ahead to see what the university’s consequences would be if he did not pull his gpa up enough in the second semester. </p>
<p>His school’s policy is that if a student is suspended for a semester, he is not allowed to take courses at any other school during the suspenscion period. They will not accept classes as transfer credit if taken during the suspenscion. </p>
<p>I know you said that his advisor had been able to gain him a reprieve for Fall semester but you might need to double check before having him take any courses at the CC this summer to make sure they will be accepted for transfer credit under the circumstances.
Most of the state u’s in the system have similiar policies so it might be worth your while to check.</p>
<p>Did your S retake the classes he did poorly in for first sem.? My S2 retook three classes in the second semester. The gpa improvement was temendous.<br>
He made a .307 (yes, that’s right) in his first sem. He retook three failed classes in the second sem. made a 2.571 for the sem. and brought his .307 up to an overall 2.105 using grade replacements. He is now off Academic Probation and in good standing with the univ. Grade replacements can be life savers in these situations if the student is ready to make the turn around.</p>
