Tell them the truth. You usually get academic probation for first failing. Your financial aide may be suspended first, but after a passing quarter you will be reinstated.

Just tell them. There is no way to avoid them hitting the roof. Sorry. You could explain why you failed. I hope it is a good reason.

This also happened to me I failed my first year of college but you know just tell your parents flat out or just hide it from them really good. But try to get back in school and do better. Dont worry about telling them if you are willing to go back and get better grades also.

Coming from experience, there is no good way to tell your parents. Just sit them down and have a rational adult conversation and give it to them plain and simple. "I failed out of school. BUT, I'm willing to go out and get a job until I can go back." And you need to mean it.

Hide the car they bought you for graduation and then tell them the truth. It will be dissapointing for them as it is for you but, put a back up plan into action. It's not too late to make them proud of your accomplishments.

Just tell them they raised a dip **** that was more interested in getting laid than learning to earn a good living.

Tell them you are going to reapply at the school or apply at another school and you will try a lot harder.

They will get over it. You take some time off, re-enroll, take less classes, different classes, and STILL graduate in the end.

Tell them now. They'll know soon enough if you don't and will be even more upset.
