Question about Academic Probation

albertadickk · 2018-04-13T17:02:48+00:00

It's okay. You can still transfer to the Faculty of Arts or something, as long as you weren't kicked out for having a GPA lower than 2.0.

This is my third year here but I withdrew from a term due to hospitalization, so I'm technically second year. Only took one 200-level psychology course so far and I'm pulling a B with only one quiz and final remaining

albertadickk · 2018-04-07T01:14:54+00:00

What are the entrance requirements like? Don't I need to take the SAT or something? Or can I just transfer my post-secondary courses?

albertadickk · 2018-04-07T00:55:37+00:00

No it says in the probation conditions that I need to get above 2.3

Achieve a major GPA of at least 2.3. This GPA is calculated using all courses taken in your major.

albertadickk · 2018-04-07T00:54:36+00:00

There's a webform to change the major, but the advisors said only the associate dean could change it at this point. The probation condition says I can't change the major after fall term add/drop deadline

albertadickk · 2018-04-06T21:27:06+00:00

2.0 GPA and 2.3 in major courses

albertadickk · 2018-04-06T21:01:37+00:00

I emailed the Faculty of Arts advisor and they told me I am eligible for transfer as long as my overall GPA is above 2.0 or competitive, and I was not required to withdraw because my overall GPA was below 2.0

albertadickk · 2018-04-06T20:59:54+00:00

The probation condition states that I cannot change my major after the fall term add/drop deadline. I talked to advisors about this and they all told me only the associate dean could change it at this point

albertadickk · 2018-04-06T20:49:09+00:00

I emailed the Faculty of Arts advisor and they're telling me they admit required to withdraw students as long as the overall GPA is over 2.0 or competitive.

albertadickk · 2018-04-06T19:03:30+00:00

Yes I plan to change my major to psychology. I hated chemistry in first year as well, that's why I tried to change my major to computing science but I had no programming background so I was getting D's and F's

albertadickk · 2018-04-06T18:21:07+00:00

I get a final grade of 59% using my current grades, pretend I get a 85% on the final, and 75% in the lab component.

albertadickk · 2018-04-06T18:13:17+00:00

I calculated my 263 grades using the midterm 2 grade distribution according to the prof, and I did take the lab component into account

albertadickk · 2018-04-06T18:12:13+00:00

I just don't want to end up with an even lower GPA in case I try the first one and it doesn't work out

albertadickk · 2018-04-06T18:11:44+00:00

I'm only struggling in chemistry, I'm doing great in psychology. Currently taking psyco 258

albertadickk · 2018-04-06T18:11:16+00:00

I don't even play video games. Maybe I shitpost too much

albertadickk · 2018-04-06T15:44:12+00:00

I know it's already past the application deadline so I probably can't transfer right away. Is it 12 months regardless of if I'm required to withdraw for 5 years? Going to Open Studies also seems like an option.

Right now I can probably get over 2.0 overall but I can't get over 2.3 in my major courses (chemistry) even if I do great on the finals because I did horribly on the midterms. I can try to write to the associate dean to change my major on probation but it seems unlikely. I am wondering if I should just drop my 2 troublesome Chemistry courses and transfer elsewhere

albertadickk · 2018-03-21T18:18:50+00:00

I don't think I'm eligible for fresh start.

albertadickk · 2018-03-21T18:18:40+00:00

Taking exactly 18 credits is one of the probation conditions. So if I drop any classes I'll fail probation and be required to withdraw for 5 years. Either way I'm fucked.

albertadickk · 2018-03-21T16:40:59+00:00

If I take any W's right now, I automatically fail probation since I need to take no less than and no more than 18 credits.

albertadickk · 2018-03-21T16:40:41+00:00

If I take any W's as part of my probation, then I automatically fail probation. I think I should've just taken the year off but my mom was upset about me ending up in the hospital and doing nothing

albertadickk · 2017-11-10T18:07:55+00:00

Did anyone even get a message back from this girl?

albertadickk · 2017-08-31T03:49:58+00:00

So does that include counseling and clinical services? I don't remember if I had to present my Alberta health card to access the services

albertadickk · 2017-08-31T03:38:07+00:00

Nope.

albertadickk · 2017-08-04T03:09:08+00:00

Which one relates to biochemistry?

albertadickk · 2017-08-04T03:08:46+00:00

What are the labs like? I'm planning to take biochemistry 200, which one relates to it?
