<p>I'm attending the University of Portland, it isn't an incredibly selective school but I have been thinking about if the school does revoke college admissions from its students..</p>
<p>I have all A's right now, but a D in my (IB) math class. It'll likely stay a D or drop to D- depending on an my final and an upcoming project..</p>
<p>I shouldn't be worried, right? I don't think I should be but I'd just like another opinion. thanks:)</p>
<p>I would say that’s a cause for worry, but it seems like you’re not just slacking off since your other classes are A’s. Write the school a letter explaining why you’re having such a hard time in math, and bring it up to a C if possible. If you’re sincerely trying hard it should be okay.</p>
<p>I think you may need to worry. I would get it taken care of now rather than July when they get your final transcript. Give them a call, maybe getting your GC involved. A D or D- never looks good.</p>
<p>Really?! I always thought it was only an issue if a student had multiple bad grades, but I didn’t think one bad letter grade would make the difference. I don’t need my math class to pass high school, as I already have more than enough credits. Math was just an elective I chose. And it will probably drop my GPA, but right now I have 3.8-3.9 and so I’ll still have a strong overall academic record…but now you guys are really worrying me. I’ll send the school an e-mail.</p>
<p>Yes estheri and oldfort are exxagerating. Theres no need to go to that lengths because of a D especially when you’re other grades are solid. It’s usually only the ultra selective colleges that you need to worry about when it comes to grades.</p>
<p>I agree with House of London. We’re not talking about Harvard here. You should be fine, but I’d still try and get it up if possible :)</p>
<p>^^^agreed…</p>
<p>Each school has its own policy. They could very well not care. But a D is a huge red flag if you don’t have a good reason. They may just put you on an academic probation, or give you a pass. Would you rather know now or later? Speak with your GC.</p>
<p>Speaking with your GC sounds like the best thing to do.</p>
<p>Just another note. It is much harder to reach GCs at public schools once summer comes around. If you think you may have a potential problem, it is better to get them involve now. I have been on CC for quite some time and there are usually a few cases like this in the summer. I think UC schools are tougher.</p>
