My lil cuz got a d1 ball scholarship to hoop, and was living good, starting, putting up numbers. He started making a name for himself and the women, partying, and not studying caught up with breh. He failed his first semester with like a 1 GPA. Got kicked off the squad.
The school allowed him to come back via appeal and he began to do well. Making B's but the terms of his appeal stated he couldn't get a C.
He had a couple semester of better grades, like low B's, and then he got a C in a class and was dismissed before he could get his GPA above a 2.0 and get off probation, even tho he showed much improvement.
He went to CC and picked his grades up for a year+ with like a low 3 GPA there, but now he's struggling to get accepted into a good university and he's struggling even worse to get into major. So even though he might be able to get into a worse UNI, they have advised him he will likely not be able to get into the "academic schools of study" he wants at any college.
Engineering, business, and communication school will not allow him to major because his overall GPA is sitting in the mid to low-mid 2's for GPA because of his first Unviersity?
What do I advise him to do? It looks like more CC will not put him any closer to a degree or that much of a GPA boost, but he has the option to take his first university's online classes out of pocket (no FAFSA) for $500 a class and take as many as possible t boost his old uni's GPA which may allow him to be better off in a year. Or does he say F it and get a random major that may be useless.
Oh, they can.
