I don't like my school and don't know what to do

College Life

  1. Go to the Counseling Center and talk to someone. I am sure many other students have been in your situation.
    https://services.claremont.edu/mcaps/ Do this tomorrow. If you have talked to them already, then like @intparent said, talk to your proctor/res life dean.

  2. You want to try to salvage as much of this semester as you can. It has been paid for and you have worked hard on it. Talk to the Dean of Students about options.
    Options;
    A) Drop the sport
    B ) Withdraw from a class or two (keeping you full time) but allowing you to put more effort on less classes
    C) If you don’t think you can pass any of your courses, then talk to your parents about a withdrawal. But if you can do well enough in some of them, consider withdrawing from some.

  3. Get extra help (e.g., tutor) and read this:http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-life/1920853-college-is-a-step-up-from-hs-16-tips-on-doing-well-in-college.html

  4. Don’t worry about next year…If you need to go to CC or take some time off that is okay right now. That is a decision that can be made later. Make sure you finish this year without failing classes.

  5. Talk to your parents about options. You may be afraid to talk to them or think they will be mad at you…I think what they really want is for you to be happy and not miserable at college.
