Well, some ppl like me didnt get below 3.0
We just failed to meet the engineering standard, so we r trying to reinstate back to engineering, instead of having faculty transfer.

I believe to remain in engineering, you need a CA = 4.0 or greater.

Sorry I am sort of misunderstand by "it only gets harder as you get into the upper years".
u mean it's harder to get reinstated? or it's just harder as in academic?

Also I have a question, for those who can actually check reinstatement status in academics Program & Course Summary , how do you guys actually check it? Because I have 4 sessions of list down there. They are my 1st year, 1st year summer, 2nd year and 2nd year summer, which part do I check if i actually get reinstated or not? or if they have rejected me? They all have blank comments.

Relating to the context of my post, that comment was directed at the difficulty in terms of maintaining a 4.0 in engineering. That is to say that the course material, credit load and such all increase in quantity and difficulty the further you go

I think it should be listed under your MOST RECENT session, under the comments section.

Just got an email from the Btech program and got denied :/, apparently they look if you "fit" the program. Basically told me engineerings only get reinstated into btech, not science students. Im not too sad though, btech was just a longshot for me anyways. Still waiting for science, my circumstance is really big, so hoping to get reinstated into science.

I hate life right now.

it does suck that you may get kicked out but this gives you many other opportunities. now you will consider college which is a good thing imo because you wouldnt have in the first place. college is too underrated yet you get a lot out of it that you wouldnt from university. and you will have a chance next year im guessing to try again.
