  Hi,

I just completed my first semester of graduate school from a university in California. I was promised funding if I could maintain 3.0 GPA in the first semester. Since I was not able to maintain 3.0, I have been put on academic probation and my college will not give me funding. Since the college is very expensive, I can't afford to stay in this colege. What are the options available for me to be able to stay in US. Also, I had finished my undergrad from US university. Is there any way I could work here and maintain status? I cannot use my OPT because I just started grad school. 

Thank You,
Shruti
