<p>So my school operates on a trimester system. Our fall term just recent ended and our second semester will end in mid-March. I was wondering how much weight these second semester grades will carry in terms of influencing admissions decisions for Regular Decision?</p>
<p>Most schools release RD decisions in mid/late March, so they probably won’t be considered before the decision is made. Thus, they’ll probably only play any role if you screw up enough for them to rescind your acceptance.</p>
