[quote=Anonymous]Op ~ she didn't get into JMU with a 2.4. She had to have had a much higher high school GPA, so my guess is she's scared about the academics and feels in over her head. Not to say she is over her head. I wouldn't suggest a student transfer because of a 2.4. Especially regarding social - - I'd wait and see how she feels closer to the date when she would return. She may get tired of "home". Is she seeing anyone while she's home - anyone from JMU socially? Anyone from HS socially? She may feel like she doesn't belong anywhere - doesn't belong there, doesn't belong at home. That's pretty typical for a big adjustment like college. I actually would encourage her to go back. Maybe get a job on campus. Her social needs could be met through predictable daily interactions.[/quote]
