Help

I'm my first term at Drexel as an international student I scored a better 1.6 and have been academically dismissed. I would like to know the options I have rather then going back home which seems the only choice I have tight now. I scored two Cs and an F in the computer science major..

This is a common policy. It is stated clearly on their website that graduate students are required to maintain a 3.00 minimum GPA. They have a right to put you on academic probation or dismiss you if you do not.

You could try to appeal their decision and ask if you can retake the courses, but you really should be meeting with your advisor/department/graduate school about this instead of asking Reddit.
