I honestly need guidance I have an addiction.because of my addiction I cant study, for three years I’ve given in, now that I found help- I’ve just been suspended because I was on academic probation. I need to know that i can come back from this, i’m a student at utsc. I have severe anxiety from talking to the registrar, about my embarrassing situation, I don’t even know why im typing this i just want to get my academic life back on track I feel like this is the end.
if this has happened to anyone please just tell me if i can do this.
thankfully,verysadperson

Dear a verysadperson-turned happy (hopefully)
First of all you shouldn’t be embarrassed to talk about your situation. Your brave for realizing your addiction and getting help for it.
Annnd people get suspended all the time.
Here’s what I found on your situation.
As it sounds that this is your first suspension, so this is what applies to you:
Students who have incurred no previous suspension will be suspended for four months (one session)
Meaning, I would take those 4 months and continue to get help with your addiction. This is probably a really difficult time for you, so take these 4 months to recoup and not worry about school.
When you return to U of T after your suspension you will be placed on probation. Read this information on being on probation. Pretty much it says that you need to have a CGPA of 1.60 in the year returning.
It actually looks likes your life is looking up. You have four months to focus on your recovery and can come back to U of T ready to go. You can definitely get a CGPA of 1.60.
Good luck bud,
Aska
