[quote=Anonymous]What year is she? When I was in college my grades were okay, but I hit a point midway where I was so burnt out and depressed I wanted to drop out. My parents talked me into staying in, but I scaled back my course load to the bare minimum, picked up an elective of interest that wasn't in my major, and got a job working two days per week. It was the right decision at the time. Changing her routine and environment to be generally less stressful, while still working towards her goals, is the key. I would encourage the community college / part time job route if this were my child. An alternative to a part-time job might be an ongoing volunteer position. [/quote]
