I’m a senior who has already been accepted to a few colleges, but my first semester grades were awful. I used to have a (unweighted) GPA of 3.47, but after this semester it’s 3.18 (3 A’s, 1 B, 4 C’s, and a D). Basically, I had a really rough couple of months as far as emotional and mental health. I know I should contact colleges I’ve been accepted to, and maybe those I’ve applied to but haven’t heard from yet, but I’m not sure when, how, or who to contact.
Basically I’m asking:
Should I contact every college I’ve applied to, including those I’ve been accepted to?
What’s the best way to do so (email, phone, etc)?
Should I do this right now, or is there a better time?
