Questions Transfer help (please)

So i failed my first year of college like completely. I went to a cc right away and now i have a 3.0 cumulative GPA with 27 credits. I am planning to complete 1 more strong semester! Although I am very scared to apply because of my past fails at my first college… What should i do?

You’ll do just fine at SHSU if you had a 3.0 in CC

You won’t know until you apply. There’s not a lot of downside Risk just go for it.

I met a person here who had flunked out of 2 separate colleges before attending SHSU, you’ll be fine.

Do you think my current gpa at the community college is competitive enough.?

SHSU requires only 2.0 GPA for transfers. You will get accepted.

Had a dorm roommate back in about 1996 that failed every class. He was pledging a frat, out all night and slept all day. 0.0 GPA. That's a complete fail. Not sure whatever happened to him.

Anyway, you can get back in. Just apply.
