Since leaving MSU about two and a half years ago, I&#8217;ve been working in the field, and am now looking to return to MSU and finish my education.  There are a few things about my standings as a student when I left that would limit my ability to return and gain the degree I&#8217;m after, which is why I&#8217;ve been referred to you.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m interested in obtaining a Computer Science degree.  However, when I left MSU, my GPA was about 2.0, I hadn&#8217;t taken PHY 183, I was a Junior as far as credits were concerned, and my repeat credits were nearly maxed out.<\/p>\n<p>If possible, I would like to return to MSU part-time, and in the College of Engineering on a probationary basis.  I would take one or two classes a semester, and if I received anything lower than a 3.0, for example, I would be refused admittance to the College of Engineering.<\/p>\n<p>Mathematically, I would need higher than a 3.0 in most of those classes to raise my 2.0 GPA to the neccessary 3.0 to officially enter the College of Engineering.  If this is at all possible, I would be willing to start with the class I had the most trouble with and had to repeat the most times, PHY 183.<\/p>\n<p><\/i><i>Please let me know what you think of this, and if this is even possible.  Thanks for your time.<\/i><\/p>\n<p>The move to D-town doesn&#8217;t appear to be happening.  So I&#8217;m taking a secondary option.
