<p>Hello, I was admitted for the Spring and I had some unfortunate and unusual circumstances in the spring. One of my best friends that I had known since I was in Kindergarten committed suicide. Soon after, I developed a fairly severe anxiety disorder (my psychiatrist believes it also relates to my father's death when I was 10). As a result of this anxiety disorder, I literally could not focus at all on school and I missed a decent portion of school because of my condition. By the time I received treatment for my disorder and began to improve, it was already to late. I received a D+ in AP Calculus B/C, a C in Ceramics, and an overall UW GPA below 3.0. I had already sent a letter to UC Berkeley in early February about the circumstances with a note from my therapist and assumed they had already looked at it, but someone told me they wouldn't look at it until after acceptances. Cal admissions seems to be very understanding of hardships that students face and I honestly believe this would go completely against what they stand for if they take back my acceptance. What do you guys think? If they do take it back, I would definitely appeal.</p>
<p>I think you’ve got it all figured out 
Hope everything works out - I think it will. You can call them if you’d like, though I’m not sure how helpful that would be. </p>
<p>Sorry for everything you’ve had to go through - and if they do take back your acceptance for something like this, just think of it as not the right school for you anyway :K</p>
<p>Thank you. I was planning on calling them tomorrow. Also, I will definitely meet the provisional contract this semester.</p>
<p>Can I get some more input on this? The contract is created for students not to slack off during senior year. If I had this disability, I don’t see how they can justify taking away what I have worked my whole life for.</p>
<p>Just calmly state your situation and provide the evidence to back it up if asked for it.</p>
<p>As long as you’re not a different person than the one portrayed on the application, then you should be good to go.</p>
<p>You have nothing to lose by contacting them.</p>
