I have been provisionally accepted to CSUN

My only concern is that I recently got a D on one of fall classes and if they would still let me attend their school or change their decision?

Are you in the local area? And are you a first time freshman or a transfer?

so here’s your first adult choice. You can post here and get the opinions of people that don’t work in CSUN admissions. Maybe they’re right, maybe they’re wrong, and either way they can’t do anything to actually help you if the D is an issue. Or you can contact the school and let them know, see if there’s a problem, and if so find out if there’s a way to work something out like taking summer school. It isn’t like they’ll miss the grade on your final transcript if you don’t say anything (although maybe that’s your hope or what your friends say)

And in fact adcoms usually want to help you, but you need to meet them halfway by getting in touch and giving them a chance. As UC Davis wrote in their alumni magazine

At UC Davis, the best action is to contact the university early, even before final grades come out. Says Campbell (interim director of Undergraduate Admissions) , “We tell students if anything changed from when you put your application in, let us know as soon as it happens. We want to work with you early on.”

There is no reason for an admitted student to fear making contact, even with news about poor performance, because the university’s goal is to keep the student eligible to enroll. If the student delays, he or she may find that it’s too late to sign up for summer school at community college, which often begins in early June.

Now it’s your move.
