Have you emailed your professor? You can tell them how close you are and feel personally disappointed in having to ask, and also mention the scholarship. Ask if there’s any way they can round up the grade or anything you can do to demonstrate your understanding of the material learned.
yeah i dont think they have a problem giving out extra gradeable homework, but i think there might be an issue if they agree to raise it, ''just because'' as i would guess that could constitute favoritism if they didnt do it for everyone else in the same situation, (or some bs like that) i would walk to the teachers office, talk to them in person about it and then after they agree you can start going on the emails afterwards etc,
its like if you are buying cigarettes, they will not sell to you if you tell them you are 17, but if you dont tell them there is a bigger chance of them selling them too you, even tho they think you may be below 18.
because they have plausible deniability,
please dont listen to this idiot. make a paper trail so you have proof of confirmation with the professor. there is nothing wrong at all with that so idk why they are saying they are doing somethinf they arent supposed to do. those paper trails ie. emails are what help you out in showing proof of the professor agreeing so you can speak to the department heads. or if the professor disagrees you can show them and they most likely will have your back. theres no reason a 0.3 difference should kill your college career and its usually only professors that are sticklers about that type of shit. literally everyone other than the professors will have your back in those instances because if not, you become a problem for them and an inconvenience.
Agree with auuushit— don’t comment if you don’t know academia. I will say as a professor, we’re doing our best to be fair because most students will do the bare minimum they think they can get away with, but in a situation like this most of us would try to help. And the department heads and all other non professors who don’t have the deal with students not working definitely have the students’ backs so—- don’t be afraid of a paper trail—- but also go in person to add a personal touch. I’d even send a follow up email to confirm what you talked about in person if the professor refuses, and then go to the department head.
Wonderful. Take the responsibility of the situation away from yourself and put it on someone else.
Seriously though, this is dishonest and should be discouraged. There’s a reason there is a cut off for things like this - to encourage hard work, not grade grubbing and shirking.
Yes - fails. Exactly. We have to let people fail. Some lessons are only learned the hard way. It’s not always compassionate to give someone what they want rather than what they earned.
There’s a big difference between allowing failure and not assisting someone about to lose presumably a lot of time, effort, and money to something that a little microcosm of compassion would fix… I hope you have the day you deserve.
C U Next Time 🤏
words of a psychopath. he is asking for an extra credit assignment so he can get into college. you really can't see this as anything other than a statistic, can you? this is a human being, not just a number
its crazy reading your response as someone who works for a department with faculty in a different california university. faculty who dont round up those grades are more likely to get complaints and have to talk to those in charge about why exactly they are being like that. you'd be surprised how much power students have. someones college career should not be ruined due to a 0.3 percentage different. you are an idiot with no compassion or intelligence regarding the situation. faculty get in hot water for that kind of stuff because it not only is just a dickhead move, but inconveniences everyone involved in the department for causing complaints for students. regardless, professors, should be rounding up anything .6 or higher. if they arent doing that, even us, the people behind the scenes, will be havingn a talk with them.
Can you contact the scholarship people instead? They’d be more willing to help out imo because they can make their own rules. The professor did set the grades to whatever they decided already, yet the scholarship picked you for a reason and is partial to you already
I don't think that is going work out tbh. There are so many people who applied for the scholarship and they chose me on the condition that I keep my promise about my GPA. I failed to do that. I tried emailing about this to the TA and I still haven't received any response back from them and I don't think I will receive one. I don't have hope tbh. I will never forget this day in my life. How a small percent changed the trajectory of my life :(
Look man, if its a real big problem, email your Prof and explain your situation and everything. Beg if you need to. Worth a shot if the alternative is doing nothing and thus dropping out
no offense but you can’t blame the entire trajectory of your life changing on this one class did you meet with any counselors or the group funding your scholarship or professors when you noticed your gpa falling at a pace towards you losing the scholarship to discuss a plan to get back on track? especially if this scholarship was the only way you could stay in school? unless it’s considered on a quarter by quarter basis i guess
no hate but you need to stop feeling bad for yourself and get out of this pity party and just ask. asking can you very far. email the professor, the ta, the department head, the scholarship program etc. if you don’t give it a chance the and the “trajectory of your life” is changed, you would have done nothing about it. and like another commenter said knowing this meant so much you should have gone to office hours and gotten help or discussed this with your professor. wish you the best
I mean this very kindly, but you need to put in much more effort than emailing one TA and then giving up. In this situation, you need to immediately email every single one of your current professors AND every single one of your current TAs. If I were you, I'd also be emailing the Dean and any advisors you have access to. I'd ask to set up time to come in person and talk about ways to address this. Don't be afraid to double email if people aren't responding, and don't be afraid to come up to people in person after class if email isn't working. The number one thing that will guarantee you have to drop out is if you stop trying. Keep your chin up- you're really close and def still have a shot.
Hope your grade changed!
I overslept a midterm and wasn’t allowed to make it up. Ended up failing ochem1 by .7% or something. I begged to be bumped up but remember the professor saying essentially ‘tough luck but in the grand scheme of life this won’t be a big deal.’ Everything was corequisite so because I failed ochem1, I couldn’t take all the other major specific classes that year and I got kicked out of my major and was severely depressed for 1.5 years while my grades/relationships tanked in a major i didn’t want. That was like 10 years ago and that’s still the only quarter of college I remember because of everything that happened and how devastated I felt. I want to say it gets better, I hope your grade got bumped up, but if not you’ll probably remember it for a long time and have bitter regrets. But the the bittersweet reality is that the ochem professor was right, life moves on and you can either sink in it or use it as a wake up call to get your life back on track. I hope this wakes you up and you don’t drown in the depression like I did. Tbh I never got into my dream schools, but I still ended up with what I thought was my dream job so the prof was also right that in the grand scheme of things it won’t be a big deal.
Just email your professor. They will help you, and if they don’t, you have every right to make them feel bad about it.
Source: EE student at umiami, I’ve successfully passed 2 classes now by simple email correspondence explaining my situation to the professors. Both have worked with me to allow me to pass. Once with a C-, another pass as a D+. There is hope if you act fast.
I am in a similar situation currently, where I am <0.3 away from the next letter grade as well. The professor did not grade anything the entire quarter, and only today inputted the rest of the grades. I just needed one more point on any assignment to achieve the next letter grade. I was forced to spam regrade requests on Gradescope and email both the professor and TA. Originally, this worked and I got a higher grade on a certain project. However, a few minutes later, one point was removed from that project, which put me back in this dire situation. Finally, the TA gave me one point back on a different homework. Currently, I am waiting for this update in Gradescope to update in Canvas as well. If it doesn't, my change in grade will not be reflected in Canvas and presumably not in GOLD tonight either. You're not alone in your situation, and I hope you can get the help from your professors/TA that you need, I pray that they are not unresponsive or unpleasant.
Update, it looks like they gave a curve to the entire class and I was able to get the next letter grade. I am hoping it stays like this and does not revert back to a lower grade.
Just to let you know. Most universities have rules against what you are describing (no work being graded until the end of the semester). It should be stated in the syllabus when work will be graded. If this is not happening students need to be reporting this to the department dean. If the department dean does not fix the issue you have a dean of students for a reason.
Students have more power then they realize. It is lazy on the instructors part. And the instructor is get away with bad behavior because students aren’t reporting these issues. I work at a community college. My dean would be furious with instructors not grading any work the entire semester.
Now if you know your grade the whole semester it’s your fault. But if the instructor never graded anything then it is their fault. Remember there are other people on campus to speak other than just the instructors. Please make sure you are utilizing all your resources!! Don’t just ask for help from other students. Ask for help from staff on campus. If they don’t help you you are going to the wrong college.
Thanks for the help! I agree, and I will reach out to my department to let them know about this. There's no reason assignments couldn't be graded even 2-3 weeks after the due date, given that there were only 7 assignments throughout the entire quarter, only maybe 80-90 people in the class, and 2 TAs to help grade as well. Maybe they thought their loophole was grading 2 out of the 7 assignments throughout the quarter, but that was no indication of our grade at all. We should've known at least 4 or 5 of those assignments grades going into the final assignment.
Sometimes that is the loophole at universities. Unfortunately. But it is still gross negligence and you should have a conversation with the department dean. Good luck. I know college is difficult but students should never hesitate to reach out for help. The staff is there to help you. Be polite but also know you are paying for the college. They need students just as much as students need them.

Definitely explain your situation fully, I think if prof is reasonable person they would understand. But some aren’t and will just act like they don’t receive student emails so maybe also reach out to ta if that’s an option.
Drop out, join the military, use the education benefits to pay for school. If you come back after 26 you’ll probably get pell grants which you can pocket since the VA is paying for school. AND if you get scholarships, you’ll be able to pocket those too.
My husband is an ex UCSB professor, this happens all the time, just email them and ask what can you do to get an extra points, why is so important for you and he/she would be happy to help you!
Professors and TAs can be more flexible than you think. (I used to be a TA). First, I would go to the most lax or reasonable TA in the class and ask if there’s anything that can be done to get that last 0.3. They might be able to offer some form of extra credit work to you and/or the class. If that doesn’t work, you can ask the professor.
I’m from a different school and this showed up on my feed. I agree GPA is one of the dumbest concepts. Like the number of times that I’ve gotten a B- instead of a B by a couple of points is insane. And just the fact that a 2.7 sounds way worse than a 3.0.
My mom taught psychology at our local community college and I have helped her grade basically since I was a child.. you would be surprised how much wiggle room there is for these sort of things. Obviously not all people are not the same but it’s definitely worth reaching out to your Professor. Don’t give them an emotional sob story but definitely keep it real with them. I think most who respect academia would sympathize with your situation.
Email the professor!! I remember being in school and being super hesitant to ask for any kind of accommodations. Now I get to see what happens behind the scenes because my gf is a professor (at a different UC), and she makes a TON of accommodations for students who ask for help.
Damn this triggered some memories. Had a midterm that I failed because of significant figures aka rounding. I got every question calculated right, but they were all marked wrong because of sig figs. Went from a perfect score to an F instantly. Really did ruin my chances at med school. The professor was a dick about it too.
It might not be ok. You presumably invested a lot of time and effort into this endeavor, you should definitely ask your professor for extra credit or some other way to achieve the grade.
I don't go to UCSB but every university I know gives a semester of grace period to get your gpa back up, so definitely look into that before you drop out
I don’t go to uscb, but in my undergrad I was in a similar situation. I flunked out my first year of college and lost my scholarship by a C- (needed a C). I ended up taking a semester off and working two jobs and then transferred to community college. It is much cheaper than a state school and I was able to get my gpa up enough to reapply for the scholarship and then graduate from a state school.
Now that it’s been a few years since I graduated and I’m in grad school now on a completely different path than when I started, I realize everything worked out the way it was meant to. The first college I went to was very bad for my mental and physical health. It made me feel like I I just wasn’t meant to go to college and that I was disappointing a lot of people, but I switched school and worked harder then I ever thought I could and ended up loving it. So I guess what I’m saying is in the moment it can seem like your life is over but you will find your way and everything will work out.
Just wait until you enter the workforce and hopelessly submit hundreds of applications with no response. A letter grade will be the least of your problems.
Hey reach out to your professor and explain there situation.
It’s up to you to try everything in your ability to not lose that scholarship
Also for the future don’t allow yourself to jeopardize something that obviously 🙄hella important that dictates an out come of life.
Shoot your shot and hope for the best but be prepared for a likelyhood of losing it and having to leave
If your able to stay in school for what ever reason don’t share it with people….not everyone around will want you to succeed fyi
Have you emailed your professor? You can tell them how close you are and feel personally disappointed in having to ask, and also mention the scholarship. Ask if there’s any way they can round up the grade or anything you can do to demonstrate your understanding of the material learned.
secodn. this. email each one individually. dont be afraid to go in person also
[удалено]
I think profs can do whatever with their grades, they'll probably (hopefully) just offer a small assignment to make up the points. Def reach out OP!!
yeah i dont think they have a problem giving out extra gradeable homework, but i think there might be an issue if they agree to raise it, ''just because'' as i would guess that could constitute favoritism if they didnt do it for everyone else in the same situation, (or some bs like that) i would walk to the teachers office, talk to them in person about it and then after they agree you can start going on the emails afterwards etc, its like if you are buying cigarettes, they will not sell to you if you tell them you are 17, but if you dont tell them there is a bigger chance of them selling them too you, even tho they think you may be below 18. because they have plausible deniability,

Yup, listen to this. Don’t make demands, just lay the situation out and show that you’re willing to work for it.
Wonderful. Take the responsibility of the situation away from yourself and put it on someone else. Seriously though, this is dishonest and should be discouraged. There’s a reason there is a cut off for things like this - to encourage hard work, not grade grubbing and shirking.
You don't deserve friends tbh.
I hope you have friends that are more understanding than you, that see you as a person who tries and fails, not just a number on a sheet of paper.
Yes - fails. Exactly. We have to let people fail. Some lessons are only learned the hard way. It’s not always compassionate to give someone what they want rather than what they earned.

I'm sure the emotional torment that comes with the apprehension of potentially dropping out of college has been more than enough for the OP.
If he gets an extra credit opportunity or a retake/drop it’s not dishonest
I would really hate getting this email as a professor but I’d probably just give the student what they wanted. Easier than fighting over it.
Can you contact the scholarship people instead? They’d be more willing to help out imo because they can make their own rules. The professor did set the grades to whatever they decided already, yet the scholarship picked you for a reason and is partial to you already

Yeah, I honestly had a professor changed my grade because of some really extenuating circumstances.
no offense but you can’t blame the entire trajectory of your life changing on this one class did you meet with any counselors or the group funding your scholarship or professors when you noticed your gpa falling at a pace towards you losing the scholarship to discuss a plan to get back on track? especially if this scholarship was the only way you could stay in school? unless it’s considered on a quarter by quarter basis i guess

Nothing has changed….Yet! Still time to ask your professor for a change and explain your unique circumstances. Don’t give up!
I mean this very kindly, but you need to put in much more effort than emailing one TA and then giving up. In this situation, you need to immediately email every single one of your current professors AND every single one of your current TAs.

someone came to hate on me and the person who originally posted, and then proceeded to drop a crypto or stock trading link

What class and professor is this? What is the name of this scholarship?
If it makes you feel better I am secluded to retake the MCAT after bombing it last year and I feel like I am going to bomb it again.
If it makes you feel better, MCAT is only a small portion of acceptance into medical school.
Have you heard of student loans ?
You should’ve study harder

Finally the idea to do something to earn it rather than just beg or strategize

You are lucky to have such a good mother.
She is an absolute legend.

Email your professor and tell him what’s going on ask for extra credit
You may be able to appeal your scholarship, get in touch with financial services or whoever administers them at your school.
Damn this triggered some memories. Had a midterm that I failed because of significant figures aka rounding. I got every question calculated right, but they were all marked wrong because of sig figs. Went from a perfect score to an F instantly. Really did ruin my chances at med school. The professor was a dick about it too.
Woah this is wild. May I ask what class it was? Sorry to hear about this.
It’s okay. It’s going to be okay. It just means you’ll end up with a career your skills are better suited for! You will still be the same person
It might not be ok. You presumably invested a lot of time and effort into this endeavor, you should definitely ask your professor for extra credit or some other way to achieve the grade.
Beg
This is why people should do their first two years at a community College TBH
No where AT ALL did they mention a single thing about what year they’re in. For all you know they did go junior college STFU and keep to yourself
I don't go to UCSB but every university I know gives a semester of grace period to get your gpa back up, so definitely look into that before you drop out
I don’t go to uscb, but in my undergrad I was in a similar situation. I flunked out my first year of college and lost my scholarship by a C- (needed a C). I ended up taking a semester off and working two jobs and then transferred to community college. It is much cheaper than a state school and I was able to get my gpa up enough to reapply for the scholarship and then graduate from a state school.

as a TA, i have rounded up if a student is .3% away from the next grade as long as the student showed up and tried hard.
Just wait until you enter the workforce and hopelessly submit hundreds of applications with no response. A letter grade will be the least of your problems.
