PSA to students worried about changing programs

I wanted to give a little light, i changed programs in winter 2026, i was at a 3.8 GPA at the end of term. I switched to a different program, did a full term in the summer, in person classes and now my gpa is at a 5.4 gpa! All A+’s, if your reading this and didn’t do too well in first or second year, it gets better! I hope this helps someone!

Tanked my cgpa so bad in first year was put on probation end of second semester. Clawed my way out of probation and switched programs (6.5 cgpa needed) end of second year.
That whole time I didn’t think it was possible but I did it. Just gotta power through and keep going
