<p>Okay, so here’s the deal. I’ve been accepted (yay!) to their College of Communication and all that jazz. However, they mentioned the standard “must maintain academic performance” level". How strict are they about this? It sounds like I’m a slacker but this senior year I’ve overextended myself. Five AP courses, PLUS a class/sometimes job working for the theater department. My grades are still holding up well with a 4.1 Weighted GPA, but I am incredibly worried about my AP Calculus course. I am BARELY passing with a C at this point, and although I’m confident I can pass this semester, I don’t think I stand a good chance of passing second semester. Will BU change my status if I drop my AP calc class second semester? I’m also thinking about changing my technical theater course, and instead taking a TA period but I’d still work at the theater every now and then… god, I sound like such a slacker. Any thoughts on my predicament?</p>
<p>Hello, I'm in COM! Don't worry about your grades slipping a little bit. I had a 4.1 as well, and ended up with a suddenly lower grade (B) in Calculus (which is still good, but I stressed way too much in high school). They won't take away their offer of admissions if you drop a class or two, as long as you're taking all your senior year requirements. Truth be told, it's soooooo rare for a kid to be rejected after being accepted, and in your case, I wouldn't worry.</p>
