-- Posted by justmemyselfandi at 7:32 am on May 8, 2009 I think my GPA is 0.055 points below what it needs to be for me to keep my scholarship for school...I'm screwed because I don't know if my parents will pay for the whole price and I don't have enough to pay for it...this fucking sucks... -- Posted by TheGreyGoose at 7:33 am on May 8, 2009 Sucks for you. -- Posted by hyperlite at 7:33 am on May 8, 2009 fuck grades dude if your intelligent thats all that matters -- Posted by Sins and Demons at 7:34 am on May 8, 2009 Talk to your teachers, most will try and help well this may only work if you have a small amount of classes taken so that a small increase in grades helps alot on your gpa. -- Posted by StarrStruck at 7:35 am on May 8, 2009 Quote: from Sins and Demons at 7:34 am on May 8, 2009 Talk to your teachers, most will try and help well this may only work if you have a small amount of classes taken so that a small increase in grades helps alot on your gpa. yups and if that doesnt work and your parents wont pay, you can always get a student loan -- Posted by SimplisticComplexity at 7:36 am on May 8, 2009 Maybe you can work out a deal with your parents where they can pay for it for now, then you can work all summer and maybe part-time during school to pay them back for half of it (or all of it) when you got the money.   -- Posted by malignant melanoma at 7:46 am on May 8, 2009 what is your gpa? -- Posted by LtrOusRtD at 10:51 am on May 8, 2009 That doesn't sound like alot maybe if you tell them you will pull it up next semester i would worry.. but just contact the people who you got a scholarship from -- Posted by EarthEmpire at 12:54 pm on May 11, 2009 What about a student loan? I'd contact the scholarship donor though, as LtrOusRtD suggested. And if there is a final you can possibly appeal the mark of, try that too. -- Posted by dreamweaver at 12:02 am on May 19, 2009 There's still grants, other scholarships, loans, and even workstudy. Just make sure you get your FAFSA in and it should help you out. -- Posted by jamesish at 9:23 am on May 20, 2009 You can still get loans and such. -- Posted by charade818 at 7:21 pm on June 24, 2009 Yeah, this happened to me. I got one point less on my final than I needed to get a B- in the class so the C+ I got pulled my gpa to 3.19 instead of a 3.20 where it needed to be. I lost the scholarship, and you might as well, but I'm taking out loans for this year and then if I can get my grades back up it will be reinstated for the years after next. The whole thing is bullshit, and my teacher won't respond to my emails, but at least I can get it back, after borrowing $20,000.
