If you failed a collefe because of major difficulites can you go back with good grades and a different major?
I was going to SUNY Alfred for Electrical Engineering Technology and my grades for two semesters were pretty dismal, barely passing, so my mom had me switch schools and I decided I needed a new major as it wasn't working out like I thought it would, now I'm at SUNY Erie Community College for Computer Information Programming, and I was wondering if I pulled off good gades (I currently am) for a semster or two would I be able to go back

It can take quite a while to raise your gradepoint average once it takes a dive. The more outstanding grades you make will improve your gpa incrementally. If you're going to a school at which a 4.0 is an A, 3.0 is B, 2.0 is C, 1.0 is D, and F is 0, you can check your gpa by multiplying each A or 4 by the number of credit hours in the class. If it was a C x 3 cr/hrs, that class would be worth 6 pts. Do this for every class that you've taken. Add up all the points that you've received and divide them by the number of credit hours that you've taken and you'll see what your current gpa is. You can also figure what your grade would be if you had two additional semesters at a certain grade point average. Check with the school you want to attend and see what would transfer and what gpa you would need to get back in in good standing. You might want to check w/the program you're interested in, too. Standards can differ from program to program.
