[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks all for your advice. He wasn’t functioning and failed to turn in assignments, and he wasn’t aware of his mental health issue until he had a breakdown and was admitted in hospital. He is taking time off from school now, getting treatment and volunteering in animal shelters, both have been going very well, but I know he worries about his GPA as he is aiming for vet school. Normally he would approach his dean and discuss his options, but mentally he’s not ready yet. Hence I am asking here to get some info before I talk to the dean on his behalf. I’ll support him for any career decisions but honestly I’d hate to see him give up on his dream. [/quote]

Sounds like you and he  are doing all the right things! One F which he will retake will not mean he can’t go to vet school. He will just need to eventually and comment on it in his application.

The most important thing is to take the time he needs to recover and when he starts back do so cautiously, with a manageable workload and hooked up with the help he needs. Good luck! [/quote]
