    F1 visa status
    I am a UK citizen studying in the USA.
    I need to maintain a GPA of 2 to maintain status. On one term I dropped below a GPA of 2.
    I am doing much better this semester. Am I now out of F1 staus or is the GPA averaged over the whole year?

GPA may not be a big issue when compare with your attendance record. If you go to school full time then it would be negotiable. DHS monitor all international students' attendance closely.
