<p>Has anyone's admission been withdrawn? And what were your grades? :(</p>
<p>yea what exactly is the policy on this one</p>
<p>i've heard so many different things</p>
<p>like you can't drop a full letter AKA A to a B</p>
<p>some say you just have to pass all your classes</p>
<p>and if just one grade falls will you get un-accepted or is it all grades</p>
<p>Yes I want to know! I'm so worried...my grades are still good--I dont have any C's or anything...but it was a REALLY hard year and I just cant help it that my grades have fallen a bit. I'm so afraid.</p>
<p>You're too paranoid. It has be really, really drastic for an admission to be withdrawn. And even then, they'd probably just put you on probation instead.</p>
<p>I'm freaking out... As a Political Science major, say I go from the following:</p>
<p>AP Chem: B S1 to C+ S2
AP Calc BC: C+ S1 and C+ S2
AP French Language: A S1 to B+ S2</p>
<p>With AP Lang & Comp, Religion, and a social science seminar staying steady A/A+?</p>
<p>I'm freaking out.... this semester has been disastrous</p>
<p>two of your grades dropped relatively small amounts... it's clearly not a big deal at all
you guys have been accepted to college, you'll be at Tufts come the fall, now just calm down and enjoy the end of HS</p>
<p>Last year there was a fellow on the board who had gotten that dreaded letter saying that they had noticed a slip in his grades, etc. I've tried to search for that thread but failed. (I'll try again and post a link if I find it.)</p>
<p>Anyway, the other posters on the board just kept telling him to write the letter and explain the fall in grades. He finally wrote it and it all worked out fine. So.....if you've received a letter questioning your grades, hop to it!! Try to keep calm, write your letter, and explain your situation.</p>
<p>And best of luck. Tufts does not want to rescind.</p>
<p>I heard somewhere on this board that only two acceptances were rescinded last year. I don't know if I'm right or not.</p>
<p>What if I send a letter even before I were to get a letter questioning my performance...as in just before grades were even sent out? My grades will probably go like this:</p>
<p>AP Economics-- A to B or B+
AP Stat--A to A-
AP English V-- B+ to B
French Business-- B+ to B probably
Genetics B+ for 1st semester, B+ in Evolution 2nd semester (probably)</p>
<p>Those arent huge drops, but practically ALL of my grades have dropped...I just can't possibly work any harder. I don't know what to do</p>
<p>those are definitely completely acceptable, they're all small drops and all of your grades are still good... you're definitely obsessing too much</p>
<p>If you've been working hard, you don't have anything to worry about. Acceptance retractions are used for fairly gratuitous drops that lead us to feel extremely mislead about a students ability/commitment/personality. If you've been working hard, Jumb090, your school will be willing to tell us that (if your grades have dropped really far, which I doubt they have). </p>
<p>There are, however, other measures we can take - like starting a student on academic probation or requesting an explanation of the drop - but you'll still be able to enroll unless you've done something pretty bad.</p>
<p>I had a roughly 3.5/4.0 high school average and a roughly 3.8/4.0 average the first half of senior year. Shortly after receiving my EDII acceptance to Tufts my teacher, one of the people I was closest to within my high school, suddenly died of a stroke. Since then I have not had any time off of school in which to process his death and I have been struggling with severe insomnia. I received a B- and a C+ in two courses, the first time my grades have ever fallen so low. How likely am I to have my acceptance withdrawn? Is it an inevitability at this point?</p>
<p>^^Try to avoid reviving dead, 5 year old threads.
To answer your question, I am sorry to hear of your loss, which I am sure was traumatic. I can’t imagine that you have anything to worry about, though. Put it out of your head. You’ll just make yourself crazy.</p>
