Withdrawing from two classes in two semesters.

I want to share that I’ve withdrawn from two classes over the past two semesters.

Firstly, I withdrew from a history course that was offered online. I quickly realized that online learning isn’t my strength, so I decided to drop it. I’m now taking the class in person, and I’m doing much better.

Secondly, I withdrew from a Python programming class today. I’ve come to understand that coding is not the right path for me, and I’m not even sure why I enrolled in it in the first place. My true passion lies in business, and I’ve decided to focus on majoring in Business Management instead.

Now, I’m concerned about how these two withdrawals might impact my chances of transferring to a good UC. I’m currently attending community college and would love to hear your thoughts on whether these withdrawals could affect my transfer status.

  1. It’s completely understandable to reassess your academic path, especially when you’re trying to find what truly interests you. Withdrawing from a couple of courses can be a part of that process, and many students face similar situations.

    In terms of transferring to a UC, while having a couple of withdrawals may raise questions, it’s important to remember that admissions committees often look at the overall picture, including your GPA, completed coursework, and your motivation for pursuing your new major. Since you’re successfully taking the history course in person and are focused on pursuing a degree in Business Management, you can demonstrate to the admissions committees that you’re committed to your goals.

    Be sure to maintain strong grades in your remaining courses, and consider writing a personal statement that explains your journey and the decisions you’ve made regarding your education. This will give context to your withdrawals and show that you’re serious about your new direction.

    Ultimately, focus on excelling in your business courses and seek academic advising to ensure you’re on track for a smooth transfer. Best of luck with your studies and your future in business!
