I went back to school April of 09. The program I am in is a 2 year on-line program where I will have my AA in Business when I graduate. I am in each class for 5 weeks then start another class. The only break I get is 2 weeks off for Christmas. I was doing really good, my gpa started at a 4.0 for the first 2 classes. It is now a 1.95. My graduation date was Feb 2011, and is now June 2011.
I can't seem to get my head in the game. It isn't that the classes are not of interest to me, I just don't do the work. I start the class telling myself that I will get a passing grade and that I can do it. By about the second week, I seem to get overwhelmed with all the writing that has to be done; and hit a wall. I am having to retake the courses that I fail, and that seems to have no impact on me. I do the same thing. I want to be in school, I want to succeed, I want to prove that I can finish school, I just don't know how.
I am starting my next class on the 5th, which is World Civ II, my second time for it. I have been thinking about dropping out, but that means having to repay my loans so much sooner. I am currently not working due to an injury, so I have no income. Any help is appreciated.

Just read what you wrote. Sending hugs your way!

If you're going to UOP, you can take up to a 60 day leave of absence. That might help give you time to get things back in order.

How is school going, buttrfli?

It's going, not as well as I would like, but going. I am trying to get my paper wrote. I might be putting things on hold for awhile because I don't have the money to buy the books for my next class. Waiting to hear from my Academic Advisor to see if that will be possible. Thanks for asking.

Hope is it gets sorted to your satisfaction.

Good luck. I brought a 1.8 average up to a 3.2 for graduation. It's possible.

I've been slipping in school but I just got to keep trying. :l
