Admission rescinded today?

<p>So i got an email from my UCR counselor, Deborah Jaurigue, that my admission was rescinded. </p>

<p>My first semester senior grades were pretty hideous.
F in ap stats
F in ap bio
B in 3D design
B in ag econ
CR (credit) in teachers aide. (it's a no credit, or credit thing)
C in Novel</p>

<p>so total was pretty much a one point something GPA.</p>

<p>2nd semester,
C in bio
A in ag econ
A in 3d design
C in modern drama (which is an english course)
and
CR in teachers aide
GPA: 3.2</p>

<p>my ap stats teacher dropped me from the class, so i couldn't take the course, however my bio teacher let me stay in.
i never reported my 2 F's... i kinda regret that now, but its too late to complain.
The reason why my grades were SO LOW first semester was because I was diagnosed with ovarian fibroma. Pretty much they found two tumors, and had to get those removed... stress and what not got me side tracked off from school work, so my grades fell. and fell. and fell.</p>

<p>I'm thinking of sending my counselor an email regarding this issue, also attaching my medical history document papers and other stuff. Do you think i'll have a chance of getting back in?
Did anyone else email their counselors?</p>

<p>you should phone your counselor and its better than emailing. Also you have nothing to lose so you should definitely try it.</p>

<p>wow pretty bad scores but you have a pretty reasonable excuse.</p>

<p>If i were you i would call them and make an appointment (its really easy, i met my admissions counselor 3 times already) and take all the important paper work, evidence over to the Admissions building. Tell them your side and hopefully they will be kind enough to support you thesis. </p>

<p>I am telling you to visit them in person because it REALLY helps, honestly, you would be surprised how beneficial it would be, at least it did alot for me. </p>

<p>good luck</p>

<p>and my orientation is on friday, so should i go just in case? i mean i paid 250 for the damn thing</p>

<p>yeah i totally understand.</p>

<p>hmmm… its already thursday, so if you can it would be good if you call them in tmrw first thing and see if you can talk to your counselor and if its possible meet her in person</p>

<p>Hey man, I really think you should talk to her because she’s my counselor too and she seems very nice and understanding. I talked to her about my situation and she was very understanding about it. Just call her and explain your situation because I think it is very reasonable and I’m sure she will hear you out.</p>

<p>she accepted you back after you got rescinded too?</p>

<p>No, I didn’t get rescinded, but I was very close. I got 2 D’s in my senior year and I talked to her and she said that she will only take that into account for my GPA. Most of the time, if someone gets more than 1 D, they are rescinded, or that’s what I hear, but she just calculated those D’s in my GPA. She was very nice and I’m sure she’ll understand your story.</p>

<p>ugh. i appealed… but they rejected it :[</p>

<p>Damn :(</p>

<p>what exactly did they say? Are there alternatives</p>

<p>I just tried to call you but their was no answer and no voice mail to leave a message. I am sorry to have to tell you but we did not approve your appeal. Your file remains canceled for Fall 2009 so please do not plan on attending orientation tomorrow. I leave at noon and it is about that time right now so if you have any questions you can call me tomorrow or respond to this email.</p>

<p>You can make your self eligible to attend UCR at a later time as a transfer student by attending a CA community college and transferring here after two years. You can make an appointment to meet with one of our outreach counselors at 951-827-5307 to set up an ed plan and recommended course of study.</p>

<p>Good luck and best wishes,</p>

<p>eh… i think ill jst go to RCC and transfer to UCSD. i never rly wanted to go to UCR anyways</p>

<p>I’m sorry to hear that =(</p>

<p>Good luck in CC though, it’s a good route to transfer to a better UC anyways.</p>

<p>ugh… does anyone think i should still fight it? i really don’t want to upset my parents. They’re honestly on the breaking point, and me attending a “university” is the only thing that is holding their marriage together, because they really want me to succeed… I’ve already lost a future in my education… I don’t want to lose my family.</p>

<p>This seems huge to you right now – and of course it is – but the path from CC to UC school has been taken by thousands of people, many of whom became very successful. Your life is not over. It’s just taking a different path.</p>

<p>Edit: And it’s not your responsibility to keep your parents together. They’re grown ups; let them figure it out on their own.</p>

<p>Yeah, going from a CC to a UC is a common route, and you’ll save a lot of money in doing so and might increase your options for UCs too. How come you didn’t report your grades though? I mean, you’d have to send a transcript in at some point in the process, right? I think misreporting grades is immediate grounds for rescinding.</p>

<p>i am very sorry to hear about it, it must be very hard on you, and especially on your parents… hope the CC route works out great for you.</p>

<p>i wanted to wait until my final transcripts were sent through, so they could see my improvement during second semester… i thought they would understand, but i guess not…</p>

<p>i’m actually going to a cc right now to take summer classes…and to be fairly honest, it’s kinda fun</p>

<p>please don’t hit me >.<</p>
