Admission Revoked?

<p>Hey Guys,</p>

<p>So I am currently a freshmen at penn state university and I am planned on transferring to Rutgers University next semester, long story. But as of right now my grades are not looking so good. From my prediction I think I will end the semester with two A's in my 1 credit courses, possible a C+ or a B- in Bio and one D and one F. What are the chances of RU revoking my admission. I mean I already contacted Penn State that I will not be returning next semester since I had to tell them before I leave for break. Anyone been in this situation with these kind of grades and did not get their admission revoked?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>that’s a very sticky position that you are in. You are very likely to be revoked.</p>

<p>Let’s just say you’re in a very, very bad position right now. That D and especially that F could definitely get you revoked. Maybe if you actually register for classes at Rutgers and start classes before their admissions office gets your grades, they maybe can’t revoke you? That’s the only thing I can think of.</p>

<p>Well I haven’t register for class yet due to the fact I am going to be a transfer student. I won’t register for them until mid Jan. But my status for Rutgers is enrolling and pay the 150.00 acceptance fee and they have my housing contact and everything soooo I really don’t know.</p>

<p>Contact Rutgers before they contact you. That’s all I can say. Take responsibility of the situation, and maybe they’ll see how mature you’re being about the situation.</p>

<p>yeah thats what I’m going to do. I’m going to send them a letter explaining everything with my transcript.</p>

<p>Colleges can revoke students even after paying acceptance fees or getting a foot in the door by registering early, etc. There is no sneaking around the admins and getting the upperhand through a loophole. (A person can be revoked even after completing a semester or more for serious infractions!)</p>

<p>Best thing to do is approach it head on, contact them, explain briefly the problem and how you intend to address the issue of poor grades as well. It may not save you from being revoked, but being straight about it and being responsible about it IS the best way to give yourself a shot at being taken seriously and given all due consideration.</p>

<p>Can you stay at Penn for another year and raise your grades and try transferring then? That may be an excellent Plan B, so keep that in mind.</p>
