hey there! im a first year who did terrible in their first term and now im worried i might loose my scholarship that asks to maintain a cumulative 3.70 gpa. does anyone know if they might reduce the mark due to the covid circumstances \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n

hey there,<\/p>\n

i actually don’t know if they might reduce the mark threshold! personally, i think they should because it’s so hard to be a first year right now. but u of t is often unforgiving with these things. you might try contacting your registrar<\/a> to see if they know anything about this\u2014or you could get straight in touch with whichever department\/office is in charge of your award. if you have any extenuating circumstances from the first semester, you should mention those as well.<\/p>\n

sorry, that’s all i know about this! good luck, and i hope your next semester is better.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

you should also chat with your registrar<\/a> and a learning strategist<\/a> about how you can do better in the future. there are academic supports out there to help you make it through your studies, and you deserve that kind of help!<\/p>\n

be Boundless,<\/p>\n
