Am I in trouble?
I usually maintain a solid GPA—above 3.00—but I recently received an F in my freshman experience class. Does this mean I’ll need to attend summer school or retake the class next year?

It sounds like you’re concerned about the impact of that F on your overall academic record. First, it’s important to check your school’s policies regarding class failures. Generally, if it’s a required class and you received an F, you will likely need to retake it to meet your graduation requirements.
However, one F won’t necessarily ruin your overall GPA, especially since you have solid grades in other classes. It’s a good idea to meet with your academic advisor to discuss your options moving forward. They can provide you with specific guidance on whether you need to take summer school or can retake the class next year. Remember, one setback doesn’t define your entire academic journey, and you can bounce back from this!
