<p>Again, different perspectives with no clear cut answer due in large part to the failure of the OP to fully disclose the facts to us. I been through dozens of similiar situations and, although I may be incorrect, there is more to the story than we know. Youth versus experience. No right answer w/o all the facts.</p>
<p>I wouldn’t be surprised if the OP is too intimidated to disclose anything now that there’s been two pages generated about their question.</p>
<p>Gifford, it is only unethical if they request mid year gradeS and the student does not send it. I researched the issue thoroughly myself, because most of the other schools my daughter applied to wanted mid-year grades. BUT NYU DOES NOT!!! The only exception is if they ask you for it! You are right that I am assuming NYU did not request a mid year grade from an already accepted student. If they did in fact ask for the grade, of course the student would need to send it. </p>
<p>Otherwise, the student does not and should not send NYU grades until June when they are finalized.</p>
<p>If a student got a B in a course as a final grade, is it important to inform a school that the B was based on 3 quarters worth of A’s and one quarter when the student rec’d an F?</p>
<p>Does the student have an ethical right to say I messed up one quarter? Or is a B just a B…and doesn’t need to have more info behind it?</p>
<p>Personally, I think NYU sees it that a B is a B and they don’t have the time, staff or inclination to know the exact path each student took to achieve that B.</p>
<p>They are not trying hard to reverse decisions regarding admitting a student. I am sure that there are circumstances that an offer of admissions is reversed once final grades are recieved in June, but it is not in NYU’s interest to kick kids out of the school before they even start.</p>
<p>Although it’s been said that it is most advisable not to drop a class, does anyone know of an instance where a student has been kicked out after admittance for dropping a class? I didn’t do so good in AP calc so i dropped to cp calc this semester. The grade I had is ap calc was not a failing one, but should I be worried of nyu rescinding my admission??
- i was admitted early to LSP</p>
<p>I got a D in AP Calculus my senior year. I called to confirm that my admission was still good and that I would not be rescinded. NYU seemed perplexed and annoyed with my calling, and couldn’t understand why I would need them to check on that (those were almost their exact words, and I was forwarded six times), but they did finally say that they did not care and that my academic record looked fine and I could enroll. This D was actually in my fall semester senior year, but I had sent in my grades and applied before that semester was over.</p>
<p>However, it may have to do with how your class relates to your major. As a Politics/Film major I had no math requirement at NYU and there’s not really any practical way to connect calculus to my majors so that could have been a factor.</p>
