<p>My friend was accepted into UCSD, but he found out he received a "D" in a community college course he took last semester. Is there a possibility that he will be denied admission?</p>
<p>There is a definitely possibilty, maybe even probability...</p>
<p>depends on a lot of things however</p>
<p>for example, did he put this course down on his app as something he was going to take? was this course an a-g course? is he going to take it again over summer?</p>
<p>he should send them an email immediately explaining the situation</p>
<p>yes, he put it down on his app as something he was currently taking. it was an a-g course, but he already fulfilled the a-g requirement for math. i'm not sure if he is taking it over the summer, but what if we consider the possibility that he did/didn't.</p>
<p>Yeah sure it was your friend.</p>
<p>i don't see any reason he would lie...it's on the internet, and he doesn't know any of us, so why would he care if we knew he had a D in a class? that's kind of silly</p>
<p>anyways, if he didn't he would probably have to have a pretty good excuse to not get rescinded</p>
<p>i'm kind of in a similar situation. i'm taking ap physics and more than half of the class is failing (including myself). i already fulfilled the a-g requirements without taking ap physics. i really hope UCSD doesn't revoke me...</p>
<p>You have to notify them immediately. The only slight chance you're liable of having (besides them not caring, which is rare), is if you promise and beg and such in the letter to retake the class in a CC over the summer. It has worked before, but it's certainly not a guarantee although you have a much better chance of retaining admission if you outline a plan to override the D or F than if you just keep apologizing or send out a straight letter.</p>
<p>Thanks for the responses and advice.</p>
<p>Also, I was thinking about how colleges don't mind if a student receives a 1 or 2 on the AP Exam, just as long as they took it. Wouldn't receiving a D sort of fall along the same lines?</p>
