As college acceptances come out… I’m starting to worry about getting rescinded…
I am currently taking 4 APs and one honors, last semester I got a B and C in two of my AP classes but the rest of my grades are As so I ended with a 3.50 GPA. This semester I might get two Bs and a C because the course load is even more intense than last semester. My normal GPA is 3.87. Am I going to get rescinded from the UCs and privates?
Did you get accepted yet or still waiting for regular? But the consensus on CC is that Bs and even a few Cs won’t get you reminded but Ds can. Of course, this is different if your acceptance was conditional. It would be stated in your letter if this was the case. For example, ED students for Marist are required to keep above an 80 average (3.0) to attend in the fall.
@a20171 I did get accepted early for two UCs but I am still waiting for regulars. So on the acceptance letters it says whether acceptances are conditional? Thank you so much though!! You have calmed my worrying heart… but I will make sure to work hard to make that C a B.
@magopieces you should be fine. Keep working hard to keep the grades up. Don’t worry too much.
@pkchamp89 thank you for your imput
All UC acceptances are conditional/provisional. UCB/UCLA require that you maintain an unweighted 3.0 GPA with no more than 2 C’s, no D’s or F’s. For the rest of the UC’s, you need to maintain a weighted GPA of 3.0 and no D’s or F’s.
Congrats!! A neat trick considering the UC schools don’t offer early decision.
@mikemac: Actually UCB has admitted some high stat/prospective Regent recipients early and UCI has accepted Regents/CHP students already along with UCSB’s notification of Regent scholars.
