Failed first Year

<p>I failed my first year . End of story i dont feel like a failure , i feel like the place and university wasnt what i was looking for . My gpa is a 1.28 with like 3 transferable classes . So i have 9 credit hours . So i was thinking of going to a CC for maybe a year . To bring my gpa up over a 2.5 . And transfer to new york . Because career wise it is a great decision . My major is computer science . Havent really given my focus a thought yet . And I was wondering doing one semester with my parents at the local CC and then transfer to a CC in new york be alright . Or should i just suck it up and do the full year here . Given that spending 6 months in a new york borough can grant me in state . </p>

<p>Oh and btw here as in South Carolina . More specifically myrtle beach . Any advise would help . Weather it be mean or nice . </p>

<p>Or doing a semester here given that I can get my gpa up to about a 2.3 then transfer to a 4 year college in new york . I was thinking CUNY Staten Island . </p>

<p>Thanks guys . </p>

<p>Failing your first year of college is rather normal, and its wise to go to a CC to bring up your gpa. But being a comp sci major myself I will tell you flat out don’t go to New York! If you really do your research you will know that Comp sci jobs in cities like New York are only geared towards those that greatly excel in computer science. Your best bet, in all honesty, would be to find a city that is more technically-focused, like California or Texas to name a couple. Those cities are in a technological boom which means tons of jobs for computer science majors. New York, as of right now, is more geared towards communication, finance, and political science majors than computer science. Heck New Jersey or Pennsylvania would be more better choices if you want to be near the New York area. But then again it also depends on your focus in computer science and what you are truly aiming for…</p>

<p>Either way good luck :slight_smile: </p>

<p>My parents are pushing their hardest to try to get me to stay here on the east coast. I really wanna go back to california. I went to Fresno State, not the best school but one I could get into. I failed mostly because of exams. To be honest this is just what I was looming for in terms of advise. Thanks man . </p>
