Your first move is to talk to an exec member...your New Member Educator and/or your VP Scholarship (or an older sister you trust). Your academic career should always be your first priority in college. In many organizations a below par GPA will result in some sort of probation/study hours and those can be used to your advantage. As others have said, use the resources your campus provides in regards to tutoring and don't hesitate to ask sisters for help...show up to the minimum activities at the least and be sure to otherwise put your studies first. Social functions are extras. Just let your sisters know you'd love to be more active if you could, but that you need to concentrate on your studies. That's ok. Many freshmen have a rocky first semester. You're not alone! The fact that you realize this is a serious problem already puts you ahead of many of your peers.
