<p>I just found out today that I'll be getting a C- in spanish and a D+ in chemisty on my final transcript. Any chance my Hopkins admission will be revoked? How should I write a letter explaning this situation...Any insights will be appreciated.</p>
<p>Has anyone ever been rescinded for getting D's in their final transcript? I'm so worried now. Thanks..</p>
<p>PS: I'm an athletic recruit..</p>
<p>are you a HS student. if so I highly doubt it.</p>
<p>if you are already a college student at hopkins, I think you will ahve to do alot worse than that to get kicked out.</p>
<p>i dont think it will matter all that much, if it is really bothering u call the admissions office or ur coach and see what they have to say about the situation JMO</p>
<p>do atheltes even need graeds...if ur recruited at say USC u can get IN with a d+ and 1000 SAT (old).</p>
<p>so u shouldnt have to worry.</p>
<p>UB-Vinny77, yes im a high school senior going to Hopkins next yr. </p>
<p>what should i write in my letter to explain the reason why im getting D's? now i really regret slacking off too much. (when i got accepted, i got B- for spanish and C for chem).</p>
<p>B U M P . . . .</p>
<p>I have the same problem. I had a senior paper that I did on time, but because of a handful of unfortunate circumstances handed it in a day late (my excuse is legit) but the policy is its not in on time you fail english for the cycle. I have all A's in english besides that one F, and my final grade for the year will probably be in the lower B range. I want to know if anyone thinks there's a chance my Washington and Lee admission can be rescinded because of it.</p>
<p>You're not going to get rescinded for a B.</p>
<p>I don't know if you should even write a letter explaining the situation. They might just glance through it, but if you write them a letter, they are definately going to know about it. Why bring attention to yourself? I say unless they ask you about it or threaten to rescind your admission, that's when you take action. Then again, its your call.</p>
<p>I wouldent write a letter. When the time arises if they contact you have a good argument why you got these grades. **** happens to everybody. you will be fine.</p>
<p>Just chiming in here - don't know JHU specifics but at many schools the student coming in with some lower than expected grades are placed on academic probation for at least the first semester. This translates into a restriction on the number of credits you are allowed to register for, the level of class you are allowed to take and requires regular meetings with your academic advisor to make sure you are handling your classes OK. A bit of hassle but at least you're still allowed to attend the school of your choice.</p>
<p>JHU says if there're any D or F on the final transcript, the student should write a letter explaning the circumstance.</p>
<p>i really don't know how to explain it since my excuse is all about slacking off too much...:(</p>
<p>The C- won't hurt you as much as the D+. I suggest you * prepare * a letter, explaining your grades -- and enroll in a remedial Chemistry class if one is available. That way, when they ask for an explanation, you can tell them you're in the progress of reconciling the poor performance during Spring semester.</p>
<p>Try to come up with a good reason instead of "slacking off too much" -- academic pressure, pressures from 2nd semester of senior year -- and rectify the situation (let them know, as well).</p>
<p>thanks for the advice, tlaktan :)</p>
<p>hey the same thing happened to me too and I was really worried.
i had a D for economics in my final transcript
and i wrote a letter explaining it even though it didn't give them a reason at all cos i said i really didnt know why
and got my economics teacher to write a letter too
and brown seems okay with it
they didn't rescind my admission</p>
<p>dont worry bout it!
you could call to check if ur really worried!</p>
<p>Do you think letting the coach is a good idea? I just don't want to be a burden for him or anything because im already grateful that he helped me getting into JHU.</p>
<p>b u m p</p>
<p>Honestly, I think you'll be fine. The college wants your money, remember? Many schools look the other way in regards to final semester grades.</p>
<p>My exams are currently going on. My A levels requires me to do only three subjects. I finished 2 Subjects and im probably gonna get an A or a B in those. But for the third im probably gonna be getting a C or a D. Is there any chance that my college revokes my admission.</p>
<p>please help</p>
<p>I think most colleges don't look at the final IB/AP/A Levels results. Saketm, Im not sure bout ur college, but for Hopkins, they only required us to send the final transcript.</p>
