But after the end of the fall term I dropped a half credit and I was put on osap probation. Yesterday I realized I am probably going to fail calculus so I made a late withdrawal. So obviously this year wasn&#8217;t the best for me. On the universities website it says that after attempting 4.0 credits will your academic standing be assessed. So does that mean I won&#8217;t be put on academic probation at the end of the spring term? If so will that mean after another attempted credit I will be put on probation (unless I do really well)? Or do they mean that they will assess my standing after 3.0 completed courses. Because I wanna redo calc in summer school, I know I can do better this time I just slacked off for most of the year :(.
