So now my school tells me that they are dismissing me, and their argument is that it isn't for this one class but for my overall GPA (which is just under 3.0).
wow i didnt think a school would dismiss you for a GPA just under 3.0, wouldn't a gpa just under 3.0 still be like a B-? Ive heard of them dismissing people for dropping below a 2.0. im just suprised to hear of that...im really sorry about your situation. im sorry i don't have any good advice, but i don't think a gpa of "just under 3" is grounds for dismal if that is their only reason.
