<p>Most common app schools have their applications due march 15th. if winter quarter for my school does not end until april 2nd, then how important are my winter quarter grades? i have something like like a 3.7 (3.67?) but i'm pretty sure i'm going to get a C in one of my classes this quyarter. Namely because college applications are so time consuming, i just havent been able to spend as much time as I would have liked on my classes.</p>
<p>i do know that colleges eventually see all your grades in the summer but i'm wondering if they'll see this C while they are still making their descision.</p>
<p>Unless you have to submit a mid-semester report, or something of that nature, I don't see how your winter quarter grades will play a role in your admission decision. I'm in a very similar situation...a tough quarter coupled with the added burden/stress of applying for transfer will almost certainly result in my getting a C this time around. (A stark constrast to my 3.94 GPA.) Luckily, I don't have to submit any sort of mid-semester report, and as I understand it the colleges I've applied to won't see my winter or spring quarter grades until this summer, well after decisions have been made. As long as our winter/spring grades aren't bad enough to warrant rescindment, there shouldn't be a problem.</p>
<p>(If anyone sees something I've missed, please feel free to chime in.)</p>
<p>gotcha. sounds good to me. Good luck!</p>
<p>Winter grades won't hurt you but they can help you(if they didn't suck)</p>
