I got a 60 for a class (not a core class… it’s photography) during the first quarter for some missing assignments. It was super messy because I was absent on deadlines for legitimate reasons and I wasn’t able to work it out with my teacher to have it changed (he understands my situation though and doesn’t dislike me or anything). I am confident that I will be able to pass the class at the end of the term, for the mid-year report.
However, I applied to babson rd and both 1st quarter grades/progress reports and mid year report are on my application status page’s checklist, even though their website says progress reports are for ea/ed (http://www.babson.edu/admission/undergraduate/applying-to-babson/Pages/application-checklist.aspx). When I contacted admissions, they said that my school should send in the progress reports if they’re available.
Is there some way around this? Can I not send in the progress report? Can I and Should I provide an explanation for my grade?
