<p>To have an acceptance be rescinded? For the UCs at least.</p>
<p>I've heard so many things like getting a C can be real bad, or that I simply have to maintain a 3.0 average. So how does it work?</p>
<p>As long as you remain on par with the level of academic performance you've achieved your previous years in high school, you should be fine.</p>
<p>If you usually get A's and B's in English, but suddenly you drop to a D, that will catch their attention.</p>
<p>the UC website gives a general idea. it says at least 3.0 average with no single grade lower than a C. but this, again, is general. my friend got an F (yes, FAIL) in calc ab and still managed to keep her davis admission. but honestly, davis' admission isn't that competetive to an in-state student and it would've been a different story if it was say, Cal or UCLA.</p>
<p>So would getting a C in an AP class, while keeping A/B in other classes be okay for the top UCs?</p>

For the first time, the University of Washington is systematically revoking the admission of high-school students who slack off during their senior year. The UW plans to get even tougher next year. From <a href="http://tinyurl.com/lybdy%5B/url%5D%5B/quote%5D">http://tinyurl.com/lybdy

"We want the students to be prepared. The biggest reason students fail in college is their preparation in secondary school," said Jim Blackburn, a CSU enrollment director whose 23 campuses have been trying to reduce the number of freshmen needing remedial courses.</p>
<p>He said the university rescinded about two dozen acceptance letters at each campus for this year, and sometimes more, including 63 at San Francisco State University and 43 at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. UC Berkeley canceled 37 offers of admission. UCLA canceled 73 freshmen admission offers.</p>
