<p>I've enrolled at UNC, but I'm looking at a potential D in AP Calc this semester...if all my other grades are in the A-B range, should I be worried? Obviously I'm going to try and avoid it, I just want to know if I should be freaking out about getting an unfortunate letter in June.</p>
<p>you'll probably get a warning letter, but i know a guy who had a D in dual enrollment envi sci and still was fine at tufts. try to bring it up but if you can't, try not to worry too much.</p>
<p>I'm in a similar situation.</p>
<p>I have all A's in my classes except Calc, which I have a B. The problem is, I'm pretty certain I'm going to fail all of my AP tests.</p>
<p>Think it will matter?</p>
<p>lol...you guys need to chill. </p>
<p>atomicradish--i got accepted OOS with a C- in ap calc on my transcript. and i'll probably be getting C+ in econ. i cant believe you're worried about a B in an AP course haha, it'll be okay. and ap tests dont matter anyway..you dont get your scores until july and you're only doing it for college credit. taking the ap test isnt even required so unc wouldnt kick you out for not passing them</p>
<p>try to keep everything in the C or higher range and you shouldnt have to worry =]</p>
<p>UNC did rescind admission to an individual several years ago but it was because his performance dropped dramatically across the board.</p>
<p>This is from the 9/4/03 Daily Tar Heel:</p>
<p>"Despite losing an injunction request Aug. 21 that would have forced UNC officials to allow him to start classes on time, Mark Edmonson is continuing his lawsuit against the University.</p>
<p>Edmonson, who was admitted to UNC in April, filed a lawsuit against the University on Aug. 15 after his admission was rescinded.</p>
<p>Barbara Edmonson, his mother, said she and her son are going forward with the breach of contract lawsuit and are appealing his admission decision.</p>
<p>"I really can't believe that he's not in college at this point," she said.</p>
<p>Before hearing of the recision from the Office of Undergraduate Admissions on Aug. 1, Mark Edmonson had paid his tuition, received a roommate assignment and registered for classes.</p>
<p>According to a memorandum filed by the N.C. Attorney General's Office on Aug. 19, Mark Edmonson, who scored a 1600 on his SAT, failed to complete his senior year with the same level of achievement he had reached during his first three years of high school.</p>
<p>Mark Edmonson's unweighted grade point average fell from 3.22 to 2.75 after his senior year. That year he earned three C's, two D's and one F.</p>
<p>As stated in the admissions letter from Jerry Lucido, director of undergraduate admissions, admission to the University is contingent on a student's senior year performance.</p>
<p>It is a University policy not to comment on pending litigation.</p>
<p>The Edmonson family met with admissions officials in July after Mark Edmonson's admission was suspended and again in August after the recision.</p>
<p>"I don't know if they really thought we'd take it to court," Barbara Edmonson said.</p>
<p>Mark Edmonson has been volunteering at a rock-wall climbing center and working on his own computer and Web design business, which he started when he was 15, rather than attending classes.</p>
<p>His mother added that he will begin looking at other universities for next semester contingent upon the court's decision regarding his admission to UNC.</p>
<p>"He'll definitely be some place (next semester)," she said, but added that UNC remains his No. 1 choice. "After all this, Mark is still just absolutely enthralled with going (to UNC).""</p>
<p>From the 11/21/03 DTH:</p>
<p>"Mark Edmonson is facing yet another roadblock in his quest to become a UNC student after an almost semesterlong battle to have his admissions offer to the University reinstated.</p>
<p>Wade Barber, Orange County Superior Court judge, ruled that Edmonson's case will not proceed to trial after his Nov. 10 hearing.</p>
<p>"In the opinion of the court, the applicant did not appeal the decision to the University Board of Trustees," said Marshall Hurley, the lawyer representing Edmonson.</p>
<p>Edmonson has about 30 days left to decide if he will file an appeal in the court system.</p>
<p>"We are looking at all of our options," said Hurley. "This case is more about a young man that needs to be in school."</p>
<p>Hurley did not rule out the option of bringing the case before the BOT.</p>
<p>Trustee John Ellison Jr. was not aware of any similar cases that had been brought before the board, but he stood by the decision of the Office of Undergraduate Admissions.</p>
<p>"The admissions office should have the right to review a student's final grades," Ellison said. "If they perform in a manner that is not adequate, they should have the right to rescind the admission. I am very comfortable with that."</p>
<p>Fellow Trustee Paul Fulton held similar sentiments regarding the University's admissions policy.</p>
<p>"A prospective student has an obligation to maintain grades that are similar to those that got them admitted," said Fulton.</p>
<p>In a letter that is addressed to all students upon acceptance, Jerry Lucido, UNC's director of undergraduate admissions, stresses the importance of continuing a comparable academic performance after being admitted to the University.</p>
<p>"We expect you to continue to achieve at the same level that enabled us to provide this offer of admission; we also expect you to graduate on time."</p>
<p>Edmonson's acceptance to UNC was rescinded July 30 when his unweighted grade point average fell from 3.22 to 2.75 during his senior year. Edmonson, who scored a 1600 on the SAT, earned three C's, two D's and one F.</p>
<p>He originally filed the lawsuit Aug. 15. Subsequently, on Aug. 21, he lost an injunction request that would have forced UNC officials to allow him to start classes on time.</p>
<p>As of September, Edmonson was volunteering at a rock-wall climbing center and working on his own computer and Web design business, which he started when he was 15.</p>
<p>Neither Edmonson nor his family were available for comment Thursday."</p>
