<p>Hi :)</p>

<p>Back in November, I listed AP Computer Science A as one of the courses I'd be taking for the fall AND spring semester. Well, I had no idea the class would be so difficult and it turned out to be something that I was not interested in at all. The only reason I took it was because I needed to fulfill my computers credit for my high school. (I was stupid enough to take AP Computer Science over a course like Info/Word Processing). However, my retarded guidance counselor never told me that I had already met the computers requirement through a course I had taken my freshmen year until February of this year. Anyways, I managed to pull off a B the fall semester and dropped it immediately before the spring semester started. But I also replaced that class with AP Pyschology (much more fun and interesting). I had e-mailed all the UC's back in February when this happened and the only UC that never responded was UCSD. I e-mailed them again after I got accepted but haven't heard back yet (not even those "We received your e-mail" responses).</p>

<p>I know that dropping a class especially one that's "a-g" is grounds for rescinding your acceptance but I was wondering how much at risk I am. I basically replaced an "a-g" for another "a-g" but I know UCSD isn't too fond of dropping any "a-g" classes. </p>

<p>UCSD is most likely the school that I will attend in the fall so I'd really like to know. Thanks. :)</p>

<p>I can't imagine why they'd rescind you for that, but it's still a good idea to make sure somebody has seen your message. Whom did you send the email to?</p>

<p>After I got accepted, they said if I were to make any changes e-mail: <a href="mailto:AdmissionStatus@ucsd.edu">AdmissionStatus@ucsd.edu</a>. So that's where I e-mailed.</p>

<p>In February, I e-mailed <a href="mailto:admissionsinfo@ucsd.edu">admissionsinfo@ucsd.edu</a> and sent in a fax. I also e-mailed the central UC e-mail which was like <a href="mailto:ucinfo@ucapplication.edu">ucinfo@ucapplication.edu</a> or something and they sent me an e-mail back saying they would e-mail all the UC's I applied to.</p>

<p>"a-g"???????</p>

<p>I didn't take the classes I said I would and UCSD didn't care.</p>

<p>i did the same thing...well i moved back a community college course from second semester to summer, emailing the change to that address and about 4 days later they responded, so give them a little bit of time to respond...</p>

<p>but here's what they said to me:</p>

<p>"Thank you for your email. We will update your file with this current
information.</p>

<p>All the best,
UCSD Undergraduate Admissions"</p>

<p>A similar situation with me... They didn't really care. But I got a response really quickly. If you get no response and are really worried, I would call. I have always had very speedy replies from UCSD administrators so a long wait would make me suspicious.</p>
