[quote=Anonymous]I've sat in on a number of grad school reviews and yes, people in your situation can continue in college and get in to graduate school. This kind of situation happens more often than you think - depression and other mental illnesses often develop in college and situations come up like death of parents, illness, etc., and people get poor grades for awhile until they get things under control. The admissions committee is usually pretty forgiving for health-related issues and deaths in the immediate family, however, they will want to see that the issue was temporary and it has been resolved. Furthermore, you need another way to show them you are an outstanding candidate. My advice? Take time off from school, get healthy, then return to work or school when you are ready. Get outstanding grades when you return, and maybe look for an internship or job in a related field. Get some good recommendations from professors or employers, and you will be fine.[/quote]
